Posted by andy on Tue Nov 17 09:55:00 2009, in response to Re: Combining the Bx12 with the Bx29, posted by WayneJay on Mon Nov 16 22:32:04 2009. The way it was a long time ago (prior to Spring 1969):BX12 between Sedgwick/Fordham Road and City Island BX12A between Sedgwick/Fordham Road and Pelham Bay Park BX12B between Sedgwick/Fordham Road and Orchard Beach (summer only) BX 19 between 207/Broadway and Southern Blvd./Fordham Road. Why was it a split route? Because the BX19 was originally a Third Ave. Railway trolley, 207th Street Crosstown. BX12,12A,12B were always bus routes. The BX19 became a bus in 1948 but the route structure was left alone for 20 years. |
