My favorite were the obscure streets and squares the NYCTA used to use in the 1950s and 60s like they didnt want new riders and the existing riders were members of an exclusive club. Also, remember, there were no transit maps around other than what you could purchase from Hagstrom or Rand McNally and those weren’t much good either. Of course no Google Maos to look up where these places are and no bus route numbers at bus stops.Also, the prefixes were not used. B1 Manhattan Beach to Oxford St. B2 Ave R to Ave U. B3 Ave U to Ave N. B4 to Harway B5 to Ryder St. B5 to Canal Ave. B6 to Harway or B6 to Bay 38 St. B7 to Ryder St. B8 to E 83 St. B8 to Bay 7 St. B9 to Dorman Sq. B12 to Jewel Sq. B16 to Woodruff. B17 to Subway B21 Brighton Beach to Oxford B21 to Bragg St. B34 Bay Ridge Ave to Harway. B36 Surf to Ave U. B41 to Civic Center B45 to Court Sq. B46 to Bridge Plaza B64 86 St (operating mostly on Bath Ave.) B68 to Bartel Pritchard Sq. Then the used Washington Plaza for instead of Williamsburg Br. Plaza for a number of years. And stopped using route names in the 70s and only used numbers and destinations. |
