Astoria Line Posted July 28, 2013 Share #252 Posted July 28, 2013 How's the N87 doing so far? I saw it at Hicksville the other day (it was raining though) and there was no one on it. But I think weather definetly played a role. I'll try heading to Jones one day soon to check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vistausss Posted July 28, 2013 Share #253 Posted July 28, 2013 Empty on weekdays and empty on rainy days. Few people on weekends and holidays. I honestly think it would have been better and less costly for NICE to just extend the n73/74 to Jones Beach and make it 7 days a week. This much service is definitely not needed. Says the one who was in favor of the n87 because the n88 was overcrowded. But it seems like you've changed your opinion which you are free to do, of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BM5 via Woodhaven Posted July 28, 2013 Share #254 Posted July 28, 2013 It's just the first summer anyways, besides the LIRR package doesn't include the n87, so once NICE and the LIRR settle that out its ridership would increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vistausss Posted July 29, 2013 Share #257 Posted July 29, 2013 Not at all So you bump two threads only giving such vague answers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mtatransit Posted August 1, 2013 Share #258 Posted August 1, 2013 Not at all That is a bad answer and besides everything Q23 said is true. I guess maybe next year n87 will get more passangers.(if nice didn't discontinued the route). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FamousNYLover Posted August 2, 2013 Share #261 Posted August 2, 2013 You really just ride the bus all day, everyday don't you? Seriously, I think you need a job. I do not just ride the bus. I go to circus protest, check on public libraries in Nassau County, go to errands at Whole Foods or IKEA, go to Nassau County Legislator Carrie Solage's meeting or animal protest with Long Island Orchestrating for Nature. Male B/O got car relief at Wantagh Station and it was male B/O who knows me from n20/21 bus and he never done the n87 route. So I help him, but made little mistake at Jones Beach, including the exit.

I only use the NICE bus when I have locations there. Other than that I am using buses in other states like MA and PA. Usually septa and PVTA in Springfield,MA or MBTA if I am desperate even cape cod RTA dude my trips are far more extreme than yours as I use multiple modes to get to my destination I will use greyhound peterpan bus if I have to. I did use intercity bus when in MA as it was the only way to do it the MBTA commuter trains unlike LIRR are just too slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N6 Limited Posted September 17, 2013 Share #266 Posted September 17, 2013 Nice is willing to modify routes so maybe next summer they'll just extend the 73/74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
