It was just extended to Main Street in January, by MTA Bus. Makes sense. Now if they only would let it run past 6 pm, people could use it to get home from Mets Games. |

I rode it yesterday and today and both times 4 other people got on at main street. I rode once last week and there was only one other person. |

No, after it leaves Main and Roosevelt the next stop is just south of Northern Blvd, then it shares a stop on Northern with the Q65 and Q66. The next stop is 31st Drive and Astoria blvd. |

Once when I was a teenager, my brother and I took the bus from Astoria to Shea. except we had to get off the Q19 where it terminated at 102 St., then hike 3 longish biocks to Northern Blvd, for the Q66 (and pay another fare). But it worked (if you were young and energetic).I think we took the subway (7 to Astoria line) back. |

Because there is no place to put one on Northern Boulevard in that section, though I think that maybe buses can loop around Stadium Road. |
