Jonesy Posted November 8, 2011 Share #1 Posted November 8, 2011 Ok, I'm sorry for sounding like a total tourist again I'm curious into knowing where exactly does this route go? I'm assuming queens but I just want to make sure...I found a schedule on the MTAs website I kinda understand the map but I got a little brainwashed... Just asking because last week while coming out the PATH station in Manhattan I found a 6XXX Series Orion V going down (I believe 33rd my memory is bad now) that was actually my goal to ride and photograph some Vs but it was going through as I had just came out..The bus looked to be in good shape too.

Fresh Pond Posted November 8, 2011 Share #2 Posted November 8, 2011 From Penn Station it goes up 5/Madison Av (depending on the direction), then over the Queensboro bridge, Queens Blvd, Roosevelt Av and all the way to 81 St & Northern Blvd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a rush and curiosity try and challenge urself by using buses in long island especially suffolk with SCT buses the trick is to time em right to meet the LIRR train you are using to enter then go on an adventure all over LI but leave after 6PM!!!!!!!! You will get a rush from owning em good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotham Bus Co. Posted November 8, 2011 Share #5 Posted November 8, 2011 only route, AFAIK, that was ever split between MaBSTOA (out of Quill) and TA dept. of Buses (out of Stengal). It was the first OA/TA split. It has since been consolidated in Casey Stengel Depot. These days, the only TA/OA split is the M116 (126th and Manhattanville).

Fresh Pond Posted November 9, 2011 Share #9 Posted November 9, 2011 If you want a rush(?!) take LIB to the LIRR? My man I think I'll get my own rushes... Question I always had, why isn't the toity-two drop-off only in Manhattan? Methinks since its like the other routes that travel in 2 boroughs it would make no sense to make that route special Besides, it helps on 5/Madison Avs ...well between 60 & 34 Sts anyway lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q43LTD Posted November 10, 2011 Share #12 Posted November 10, 2011 True, course LIB is drop-off only sometimes though, but I guess that's probably a legal reason. LIB is drop off only WB in Queens due to jurisdiction rules about not siphoning fares from the other agency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TML Posted November 10, 2011 Share #13 Posted November 10, 2011 A few months ago, I saw someone advocate on another forum that the Q32 be extended to Flushing. My assessment of that idea was that it would make it more duplicative of subway and/or other bus routes (as it stands now, the Q32 is already a duplicate of several subway lines), and that there would be relatively little demand for Flushingites to travel to Manhattan solely by bus. Does anyone agree with this assessment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone agree with this assessment? ugh yes the Q32 needs to stay put going to flushing anyone with a brain would know that makes no sense it would only give MTA reason to reduce it badly. There is 0 demand for Q32 to flushing there is a rapid elevated service to flushing it's called the Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qjtransitmaster Posted November 12, 2011 Share #17 Posted November 12, 2011 The Q32 is good the way it is now, it already suffers from tons of congestion and such, sending it furthur into Corona would harm it. The Q32 is not meant to be a 100% alternative. The current route [34th St. /32nd St. [N] <-> 5th Ave. /Madison Ave. [N] <-> 60th St. /59th St. [N] <-> Queensboro Bridge <-> Queens Blvd. <-> Roosevelt Ave. ... and so on] is good enough... tell that to the IDIOTS who keep insisting on extending it but I doubt they will get the message cause they are that DUMB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Q32 is basically like the B62, Q44 and Q58 and whatever other route I passed up In the fact that they're interborough routes, yeah.... If we're talkin about how (much of a headache it is enduring) an average ride of each of those routes, I would exclude the B62....

Does anyone agree with this assessment? Agree 100%.... There's zero need for the Q32 to flushing, when you have ppl takin Q19's & Q66's from the west (outside of takin the subway, of course).... Q32 to flushing is just as bad, if not worse than the infamous suggestion of sending it to LGA (via a Q33 merge)..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
