As you stated this was an inherited route from a private operator. Most Jones Beach service was either Bee Line/Stagecoach (Freeport and Wantagh shuttles) or Schenck that served many Queens and Nassau locations.
Steinway Transit and New York Bus Service were also in the the action.
I believe the Hicksville line was an extension of the Wantagh shuttle, so I would guess Stagecoach operated the route.
As you described the route, the routing is the same.
I've had the pleasure of riding the line many times. The passengers during the week are primary teenagers whose parents are probably working so they can't drive them (or they don't want to be seen with mommy or daddy). The teens go wild from boarding the bus to exiting. I don't know how the drivers can stand it.
