Posted by 27TWIT on Tue May 31 21:28:09 2011, in response to Re: Bus Map History #3: ''QUEENS Bus Guide'' map - 1975 (PDF file), posted by D to E to Jamaica on Mon May 30 23:14:56 2011. Keep in mind that in those days the Q3 was a rush-hours-only route. Making it full time freed up the Q5A to combine with the Bedell/Rochdale branch full time as well (it used to combine during overnight hours) since it didn't have to supply service along Farmers Blvd.The 2 shuttles (Laurelton and Rosedale) were rush hours only. Regarding the 25/34, there were no limited stop buses in those days (with the exception of the Q53), so it probably never occurred to anyone. I do wonder, though, why the MTA hasn't considered extending the present-day Q34 along Willets Point Blvd. to Fort Totten and eliminate the Francis Lewis / WPB branch of the Q16. And the Q44B (Malba Shuttle) was rush hours only plus some midday service, at least on the schedule - probably for students, not sure. I once made the mistake of waiting for it at noon and having it not show up until 3 PM. That was the longest wait for a bus I ever had. |
