BM5 via Woodhaven Posted December 18, 2015 Share #1 Posted December 18, 2015 Last Saturday, I did a mini fan trip, in which I rode the n4, to the n19, to the n72, to the n6 (took the subway to/from Jamaica). I stopped by at some areas where the buses terminated, such as Babylon and Hempstead. Here's Jamaica, pure MTA Buses though: 2011 New Flyer C40LF 215 on the Q25 at Archer Avenue/158 Street by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr 2011 Nova Bus LFS Articulated 5934 on the Q44 SBS at Archer Avenue/158 Street by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr 2015 Nova Bus LFS 8091 on the Q4 at Archer Avenue/158 Street by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr Anyways, I got on 1716 on the n4 late, and afraid I was going to miss my connection at Freeport to the n19 (that would suck). I got off a few stops before Freeport to catch it, but it was late too. Why? It was because the driver interlined with the n19 at Freeport. Nevertheless, we were 10 minutes by the time we left Jamaica, but by the time we were in Babylon, the bus was 30 minutes late. Anyways, pictures from Babylon can be seen in the SCT photos thread. I take the n72, also late, by around 20 minutes. I took an pic along the way towards Hempstead of another n72, going to Babylon: 2003 Orion V CNG 1656 on the n72 (NICE Bus) at Route 110/ Conklin Street by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr Then I arrive at HTC, 30 minutes late of the scheduled arrival time..... NICE Bus Changes Effective January 17, 2016 by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr ....and see the same bus I was on, but on the n15 this time. There was a different driver this time, so I believe there was a relief somewhere along the way, since there would be no time to go back to MF. 2009 Orion VII "Next Generation" CNG 1716 on the n15 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr Found an ex-Foothill, with a messed up sign 2002 Orion V CNG 1003 on the n35 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr Anyways, caught some new buses on plenty of different routes, such as the n55 and n72, so they're going east too. 2015 New Flyer XN40 "Xcelsior" 1907 on the n72 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr 2015 New Flyer XN40 "Xcelsior" 1907 on the n72 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr 2015 New Flyer XN40 "Xcelsior" 1900 on the n55 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr 2015 New Flyer XN40 "Xcelsior" 1907 on the n72 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr 2015 New Flyer XN40 "Xcelsior" 1900 on the n55 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr 2015 New Flyer XN40 "Xcelsior" 1909 on the n35 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr 2015 New Flyer XN40 "Xcelsior" 1914 on the n27 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr 2015 New Flyer XN40 "Xcelsior" 1911 on the n31 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr 2015 New Flyer XN40 "Xcelsior" 1911 on the n31 (NICE Bus) at Hempstead Transit Center by BM5 via Woodhaven, on Flickr Videos: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BM5 via Woodhaven Posted December 20, 2015 Author Share #6 Posted December 20, 2015 Indeed. You can tell it's new by the shine factor on the alcoa rims. Beautiful stuff! Thanks a lot! That N31 sign that's the way all routes should display. Nice pics n' vids btw... Agreed. Thanks man! Is sad that youmention the n19 toBabylon. ..now it would be the n72 the only. NICE bus While the n19 does carry riders to Babylon, the n72 carries significantly more riders, despite it running there only 6 days of the week. Perhaps in the future, NICE can look at extending the n72 to Babylon on Sundays, but with the current situation, it's not going to be possible. Great pics. What a surprise, NICE buses running late and messed up signs lol Lol, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
