Posted by Spider-Pig on Mon Sep 23 15:43:45 2024 Why is it that Brooklyn gets the plain B but Bronx uses Bx? |

It would be especially fun near places like Ridgewood and Broadway Jct where the Kings routes would meet the Queens routes in numbers. |

Unfortunately the trend went in the opposite direction from what your B->K proposal entails. Rather than switching from borough name to county name, buses in Staten Island went from the county name (R) to the borough name (S), an especially poor decision because this conflicts with the Suffolk County prefix designation. |
