Tuscarora Almanac for September 24


1948 – from The Book of First and Last Runs

New York City takes over operation of the six bus routes of the Comprehensive Omnibus Corporation and the East Side Omnibus Corporation.

Comprehensive had three routes; M-1 Madison-Chambers Streets Crosstown (today’s M-22), M-3 49-50 Streets Crosstown (today’s M-50 also M-27 at one time), and M-7 65th Street Crosstown (today’s M-66).

East Side Omnibus also had three routes; M-11 York Avenue (today’s M-31), M-13 First Avenue and M-15 Second Avenue. First and Second Avenues were made one way only on June 3, 1951 and the M-13 was discontinued at this time. The M-15 designation was now used for both routes.
