Posted by andy on Mon Mar 6 20:51:01 2017, in response to Re: Tuscarora Almanac for March 1, posted by W.B. on Sat Mar 4 10:19:54 2017. The #2 was not a FACO-NYCO hybrid after January 1966, but remained as two separate routes. The FACO version was rechristened #2A (via 110th St & 7th Ave) to differentiate from the NYCO version, which remained #2 (via 116th St & Lenox Ave).In March 1969 the #2 was re-routed to Third (NB) and Lexington (SB) Aves., continuing to operate on 116th St. and Lenox as before. It was renumbered #101A, and despite the Surface Transit sounding number was actually the old NYCO #4 Lexington/Lenox route. #2A continued to operate as previous, an updated FACO #2 route. In the early 70s all alpha suffixes and duplicate numbers in Manhattan were finally eliminated. #101A became #2 and #2A reverted back to its original #2. Amazingly, with the M prefix added, these numbers are still the same today. |
