If you check the Red Book for around 1975, in Manhattan there were routes with just numbers, routes with an M prefix and other routes with a prefix that said "Route" although I doubt the word ever appeared on roll signs.What you had was massive confusion with a half dozen route numbers appearing twice within the same borough. In fact there were three 15s in use in Manhattan, the First and Second Avenue designation which was retained. Chambers Street which was renumbered M22, and the route over the Queensborough bridge which was also numbered just 15. |
