SubBus Posted October 10, 2013 Share #1 Posted October 10, 2013 I noticed that there are two different destination readings for the Q3 on the Nova LFS Destination reading #1 is the regular destination you'll see on the RTS and NGs: JAMAICA 165 ST TERM followed by 179 ST STATION Destination reading #2: JAMAICA which fills out destination sign in huge letters, followed by, 179 ST STATION 165 ST TERMINAL together on the destination sign Has anyone else seen this?

Cait Sith Posted October 10, 2013 Share #2 Posted October 10, 2013 Yessir, I actually prefer Destination #2's signs, its much more better in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q43LTD Posted October 10, 2013 Share #3 Posted October 10, 2013 Actually, it's JAMAICA 179 ST STA 165 ST TERM It should be JAMAICA 165 ST TERM via FARMERS On the LFS' the airport logo doesn't show up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh Pond Posted October 10, 2013 Share #4 Posted October 10, 2013 I always wondered why it says both 179 Station and 165 St terminal while no other routes say that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamen Rider Posted October 10, 2013 Share #5 Posted October 10, 2013 consider where it starts, and who might use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R44 CNG Posted October 10, 2013 Share #6 Posted October 10, 2013 5030 reads Q3 165 ST TERM, Q3 Jamaica/179 st sta (On RTS, NG and LFS with Update #2) on LFS with Update #1 it reads Q3 JAMAICA, Q3 179 ST STA/165 ST TERM not sure what it reads on original LFS sign, some buses still out there with small Q... Q3 mentions 179 st sta becuase its the only airport bus in Jamaica with subway connection . 179th st is probably only mentioned because it is a terminal, connection to Q3 can be made at 169 as well...which is probably why R160 trains dont display Q3 at 169th St too.

Update #2 Update #1 Thanks for the picture displays, R44CNG. I also saw update#2 on the LFS that operates on the Q3 as well..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B35 via Church Posted October 11, 2013 Share #8 Posted October 11, 2013 Yep..... It's supposed to be a way to show airport riders that the bus does serve a subway station.... The inconsistency with the MTA with this is that, there is no such equivalent sign for the Q10, for example... (of course, what's not told in the Q3 signage is how long you have to endure the lagging just to get to hillside av itself - never mind riding a little further west at hillside/179th st )....

Q43LTD Posted October 11, 2013 Share #9 Posted October 11, 2013 Because the Q10 already displays that it terminates at a subway station. KEW GARDENS UNION TPKE STA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
