'89 Liberty MCI Posted June 25, 2008 Share #2 Posted June 25, 2008 I'm sure my mom or dad must have taken me on the Bx24 when I was a baby though I may not remember. As long as the route was canceled after 6/20/1992. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'89 Liberty MCI Posted June 25, 2008 Share #5 Posted June 25, 2008 Anyone remember the Q21A, from Rockaway to East New York? I never rode it but I saw it on the rollsign of MTA Bus (ex-Green) GMC #5839. Came to the end of the line and had the bus op go thru all the readings actually. Q21A BEACH 35 STREET ONLY Q21A FAR ROACKAWAY Q21A IRT SUBWAY NEW LOTS Sounded like an interesting route, going along Linden Blvd to the train. Must've had some good speed on Cross Bay and Linden.

twilson1160 Posted June 26, 2008 Share #10 Posted June 26, 2008 i remember taking the Bx24 to Riverdale. It was sad that they had to discontinue that route on 9/10/1995:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q43 Floral Park Posted June 28, 2008 Share #12 Posted June 28, 2008 The B78 which use to run on rulph ave..... Same goes for the B40 which is no more. The Bx24 used to stop down the block from my house. it was a nice route, not too long, not a whole mess of people. I miss it. the Q5A/AB/S: don't remember the routings for all of them but this was being discussed on Buschat Q49: old Archer av shuttle when the El was being knocked down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted June 28, 2008 Share #13 Posted June 28, 2008 I used to take the Bx31 everyday at Woodlawn - Neried Avenue, but now I take it at 233st to transfer to the Bx16 after the re-route to Katonah Avenue. Never been on other routes since the 16 and 31 was all I rode back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebbieprops Posted June 30, 2008 Share #16 Posted June 30, 2008 Bx54 - I been on that. It used to stop in parkchester and soundview... I 4got where else it went after.. The old Bx54 started at the Simpson St. (2)/(5) station, and ran Southern, Bruckner, Bronx River, Story, White Plains, Westchester, Metropolitan. It ended at the Oval. It was discontinued in 1990.

sebbieprops Posted July 7, 2008 Share #19 Posted July 7, 2008 I wonder if the display signs on the buses still show the old routes, if you punch in the proper code. For example, if you hit 3231 (which would be the Bx23), would it come up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T J Trainman Posted July 7, 2008 Share #20 Posted July 7, 2008 The old Q-89 was not a triboro thing that was actually out of the Hudson Pier depot. I think it was elimnated in the early 1990s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
