Posted by W.B. on Mon Mar 6 21:40:35 2017, in response to Re: Tuscarora Almanac for March 1, posted by andy on Mon Mar 6 20:51:01 2017. Funny, I seemed to recall M101A, in 1974, renamed M102. Oh well . . .But that's what it was, I suspected the FACCO #2 becoming (M)2A (on its way to being changed to M2 in '74), travelling as it did via Seventh north of 110th. By the time MTA made their decision to have borough prefices on all their routes in 1972, the M2A was the only one remaining, ex-NYCO #2 being so juggled (as you've just noted) into M101A . . . I'd've thought the #101A moniker dated to the July 1960 one-way conversions of Third Avenue to NB and Lexington to SB (the same route pattern change which led to NYCO's #3 and #4 being eliminated) . . . who knew it was nearly nine years after with the NYCO #2 being so renumbered? I presume this means that, from 1960 to 1969, the Surface Transit #101 Third(/Lexington)/Amsterdam (to 193rd/Fort George) was the only one travelling along Third and Lexington Avenues? |
