Re: TA Documentation! Re: Bus Renumbering [September 1988 Motor Coach Age: New York Area Notes]

Posted by W.B. on Sun Jul 14 09:09:38 2019, in response to TA Documentation! Re: Bus Renumbering [September 1988 Motor Coach Age: New York Area Notes], posted by Union Tpke on Sun Jul 14 06:05:34 2019.

I noticed, in that list of "M" routes, M13 to M8 was not among the crosstown "corridors" to be changed. I presume this was just before the then-Grand Street line which bore the M8 designation was discontinued. When in 1987-88 would M17 have become M79, and M29 as M66, if that was from a document dated May 27, 1988 as within a TA agenda document from June 1988?

I also wonder if the Municipal Archives would have the "Proceedings of the Manhattan and Bronx Surface Transit Operating Authority" three-volume set from between March 20, 1962 and December 1967. It was from snippets of that on Google Books, for example, that I was able to piece together that, as far as they were concerned, the FACCo #2 and NYCO #2 were "merged" on Jan. 14, 1966 into - and definitely treated operations-wise as - a singular route with two branches (the former as 2A "Seventh Avenue branch," 9.48 route miles, and the latter as "Lenox Avenue branch," 7.5 route miles).
