Joel Up Front Posted March 17, 2012 Share #6 Posted March 17, 2012 I just know the streets it turns on, but the N35 one is bothering me. If Commercial Avenue ENDS at Clinton, how can it turn right? Unless they're talking about Westbury-bound buses. I don't know how buses going to Hempstead and Baldwin Harbor are going to handle this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N6 Limited Posted March 17, 2012 Share #7 Posted March 17, 2012 Thank you, N6L.No problem, do you understand it now? I just know the streets it turns on, but the N35 one is bothering me. If Commercial Avenue ENDS at Clinton, how can it turn right? Unless they're talking about Westbury-bound buses. I don't know how buses going to Hempstead and Baldwin Harbor are going to handle this. Basically the N35 will cross the tracks where the N24 & N27 does. It will have to use Commercial ave to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilbluefoxie Posted March 17, 2012 Share #8 Posted March 17, 2012 itll be more than that, I go to see the Circus train every year at Garden City, its often late, and shows up in the area of 2-3pm. Its quite fun to see and the ONLY time you will see an actual train on the abandoned Garden City line. http://jonstrainphotos.com/photos/route/gc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Up Front Posted March 17, 2012 Share #9 Posted March 17, 2012 Last year they split the train up at the Selfridge Avenue crossing... but I looked at Google Maps and the tracks end short of the Meadowbrook. Where do the animals get off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do the animals get off? that im not sure as I wasnt standing that far back down the track. Im sure they let em out in that same area alongside the track, then parade them down Quentin Roosevelt Blvd towards the coliseum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marctalky1 Posted March 19, 2012 Share #11 Posted March 19, 2012 I took a 27 to NCC today and a 24 back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Up Front Posted March 20, 2012 Share #12 Posted March 20, 2012 They had to feed traffic through the military housing streets once they joined the traffic. I got on an N35 that got through just in time but he announced at RFM that he had to use Westbury Boulevard - when he tried to take a shortcut back through NCC, the train was coupled back so he had to make a u-turn and go back to Endo Boulevard, then turn right and follow the N16 route to Hempstead. I almost missed my bus. Happening at night? Ha... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
