Many of us 40 and over NY'ers can remember the Bx55 from the beginning. It was the BX-55X and it had that "special" status over other routes. Kingsbridge always assigned it's newest buses to the BX-55 and of course, it was the "Express".

It's funny that they're now looking speed up bus service along this corridor. In those early days the BX-55 always made good time along Webster, Third Ave (n/b), Washington Ave (s/b) and 161st Street. Even the old BX-29 (now Bx15) made decent time. Once Third Ave was converted back to two-way traffic flow, the BX-55 become the slow route that it is today.
