Perusing on eBay as I frequently do for bus-related memorabilia to get clues, I came across a c.1966-67 Manhattan bus and subway map put out by The Chase Manhattan Bank (misdated by the seller as 1960; but an illustration on the cover approximating the R38 subway car and one of the 1963-66 Fishbowls - to say nothing of the one-way paths of Fifth and Madison on the bus maps - tells the story of when it actually came out). Sure enough, on ex-NYCO 2, its northernmost terminus is shown as Lenox and 147th, right next to 1 and 7. (It appears, however, to have been prepared before ex-FACCo 2 had the 'A' suffix added on, as the map presents both 2's as one line with different "branches.") |
