BM5 via Woodhaven Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share #502 Posted May 14, 2012 The Q102-104 connect with the Q60. The Q110 has no direct connection. Pass. The Q103 doesnt connect with the Q60. The Q60 is on the 59 street Bridge by the time it reaches vernon Avenue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These pick riddles are kind of annoying... (I call bs, and maybe we should stick to regular riddles...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threxx Posted May 14, 2012 Share #505 Posted May 14, 2012 Proposed, simpler rules: 1 riddle at a time. 24 hours to answer. Each person gets 3 guesses. If person decides to go, and dosen't post a riddle within 24 hours of their acceptance post, they forfeit their turn. If an answer is declared to fit the context of a riddle by at least 3 people, it is right. If an answer does not fit riddle, anyone can go. No more pick riddles, they are confusing and not fun.

Mysterious2train Posted May 18, 2012 Share #511 Posted May 18, 2012 I run between a subway station near the end of its line and a far-off mall, and most of my route is a big "L" shape. Even though people do ride me from end-to-end, there's a route you can take with two other buses that'll get you between my two terminals a lot faster than I do... Who am I? If you're feeling up for it, why not try and name the other two buses I'm talking about. Well, actually, for both of those two routes, there are actually two routes you can pick for each.

Mysterious2train Posted May 19, 2012 Share #513 Posted May 19, 2012 The Bx30 ends near a mall, but not at it like the Bx12, Bx29, or Bx38. And it's route isn't really an 'L' shape. Since it's been over a day, the answer is the S79. Shaped like a giant 'L' on Hylan Blvd and Richmond Av, more or less. If you take the S53 or S93 to the S61 or S91' you can save a lot of time over the S79, especially with the Limiteds. The S79 is so long and slow it's painful. Of course, SBS might change that.

The thing that confused me was when you said "a route with 2 other buses". I thought that meant some kind of coorridor (like for instance, the Q25/65 take a more direct route from Flushing to Jamaica than the Q17. I was actually about to say that, except for the fact that the Q17 doesn't serve any malls) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threxx Posted May 20, 2012 Share #515 Posted May 20, 2012 I'll go now... I am a ignored route. I have high ridership, but low headways. I used to be medium, then long, then medium again. I only have two bus models running on my route, but I run right through a major terminal where I sometimes see others. Who am I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BM5 via Woodhaven Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share #516 Posted May 20, 2012 It depends what you mean as medium, but I will say the B11. It operated between Sunset Park and the Junction, to be extended to the Rockaway Pkwy Station , only to br shortened back to the junction. It currently uses C40LF and Orion VII CNG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have two bus models running on my route, but I run right through a major terminal where I sometimes see others. Who am I? Technically, you mean "low frequencies" or "high headways". In any case, Q23 beat me to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to word it as clearly as possible, but I didn't consider that possibility. As for the riddle, is it the B13? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B36 Via Ave U Posted May 21, 2012 Share #522 Posted May 21, 2012 I'll go, the only after affect of the serVice cuts on me was reducing the amount of morning and late night service to one of my terminals, instead. I short turn a few mins up the road, it's all CNG all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threxx Posted May 21, 2012 Share #525 Posted May 21, 2012 I'd say the B82/B83 It's the B9, neither the B82 or 83 runs CNG buses, Q23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
