Thank you. Believe me the county would not had given up on that route, given the ridership during the summer. They ran that line to get NYC customer to spend money at Playland. Like I said, when the park closed and the employees went home, the 92 had one standard bus, carrying about 5 people. The 91 had one arctic, and 1 standard. The 90 had six or more arctics. The unruly Bronx customers lead to the demise of that line. Guess the money they brought to the park, did not offset the cost of fixing the bus after they destroyed it.Like I mentioned, the 91 at a point had county police undercover officers on the bus, and a marked car followed the bus until the Yonkers border. The Mt. Vernon, and New Rochelle young workers were constantly going at it. Only 3-4 of us were left going to Yonkers, after leaving Mt. Vernon. I take it undercover cops rode the 90, after complaints, and buses being torn up, and the WCDOT said to themselves, this line does not serve our residents, so discontinue it. That they done. So now it is Metro north to Rye, and the 75 to Playland. |
