SCAN: New Q8 (MTA Bus) and BX12 select schedule covers |
|
|
Posted by QM18Express on Thu Jun 26 02:03:05 2008 I know there's already a new schedule cover out for the Q100 with a Hybrid on it however since nobody has posted the change, I shal be the 1st one to post on this.YES 9707 is no longer going to be on the covers of the local bus schedules starting with the Summer 2008 schedules. It is going to replace by O7 Hybrid 3643 as the new "Poster Bus"! I found this on the Q37 early this morning as the new Q8 schedule was on the schedule holder by the back door of 3699. I also included the BX12 Select Bus schedule that I found on 5310 on the BX12 sometime last week. Enjoy!

And I happened to encounter the new July 2008 Bronx Bus Map, which includes the Bx12 +selectbusservice in a huge thick blue line and (+) to denote SBS stops...plus some other things...--Dr. C The Doctor Is In... |

They should put 3800 on the MTA Bus schedules. I know it's not an "MTA Bus", but it's the most modern-looking bus we have... |

The MTA folks are in full swing along the Bx12 today handing out multipage slick paper Select Bus brochures. Nice job.There were no Bx12 local/limited schedule folders on any buses, the folder schedule scanned and posted here earlier was only found on oe bus, operating on the Bx22. All Bx bus maps spotted were 2006 versions. jrc |

Say did you look at the path on how the Q8 will get to Gateway? Man, I hope to doesn't do the bullshit the B13 does by going on Euclid Av., the completely going around Pink Houses, passing by the theater, and going into the Postal facility loop.This will make the Q8 shit is MTA is copying the B13. Please make it go donn Crescent Av. only. |

Change course and head over to 3 Stone Street. That's where you can pick up your copy of the new 2008-07 Bronx bus map as well as the new Bx12 SBS schedule.Interesting feature on the new Bronx bus map. They included something which, while omitted, prompted me to draw this.

But the new map doesn't show where the stops are located.Also on the back side, there's a mini-map showing where the express routes run in Manhattan. |

As of Thursday, there is no bus stops signs along the Q8 extension indicating the change. However, 139 did arrived at Euclid Ave with the Spring Creek-Gateway Mall destination sign displayed.......... |

The Q8 will travel on Euclid, Linden Blvd, then Fountain Ave to Gateway Mall. Jamaica bound, its a weird, kinda roundabout routing from Sutter/Fountain....... |
