IMHO what killed the Q21A was the awful service provided by GBL. People would have utilized the Q21A just within Rockaway alone.That was the only bus to serve the Bayswater area along with the Q22A (weekdays only). Also people from B.56th Place west would've used it as a faster alternative to the much slower Q22. Back then you didn't have train to bus transfers nor did you have the transfer from/to the Franklin Shuttle to the 2/3/4/5. So the Q21A provided a direct connection to the New Lots line and several buses in East New York. However there was no set schedule for the Q21A. They ran it when they got ready-anywhere from every 40 to 70 plus minutes. People just couldn't depend on it. Look at the Q52 today. It follows most of the Q21A route and look at the ridership. |
