I wonder why the 10 cent fare via the TBB was only leaving Queens and not going towards Queens. It’s also interesting that the fare to Queens was only 5 cents without any surcharge for going over the bridge. As I recall, in the 1960s, passengers on the Q44 going over the Whitestone Br were charged an extra nickel in both directions supposedly to pay for the toll. Passengers entering would pay the extra nickel and receive a receipt which the driver would collect from each passenger at the last stop before the bridge in each direction. Diid that eventually also happen on the TB routes? |
