Posted by hound on Thu Dec 9 12:18:52 2010, in response to 1059, posted by MCI GUY on Thu Dec 9 10:29:11 2010. Does anyone know the scheduled runs or times for 6259 which is supposed to be on the S61 on Mon? Also,for 2969 & 9098 on the BX7 & Bx30 on Mon? I plan on riding them but don't want to take pot-luck standing in the cold. Thanks. |

Unless you have the cell phone number of the B/O driving that vintage bus on that day, and he arrives at the depot and is able to pull out when he predicted in advance that he would, then there is no way to know when the bus will be in-service at any specific location on any specific day. Also, there are no guarantees that the buses in the posted schedule will run on their assigned route or on any route in the city. You have two options for finding a vintage bus in service, assuming you don't have an automobile and abundant parking available to you: 1) Pick a bus stop along the route and wait for the bus. 2) Go stand outside the depot and hopefully the B/O will pick you up as he pulls out and heads over to his starting point. Note that #2 is the only way to ensure with full confidence whether the bus is still in the depot or not. To ensure you actually have a chance of riding the bus, assuming it pulls out, you should get to the depot well before the start of the IMO range of estimated pull out times, which are 8:30am-10:30am and 1:00pm-4:00pm. However, since it seems that you have no interest in standing out in the cold, unless you get someone to allow you to wait inside a heated section of the depot, or you wait somewhere indoors with a view of a bus stop, you will not be riding the vintage buses. You could hire a black car to drive you along the route until you find the bus. Take Pride,

With KB & the Bx7, it appears not one run was made as no one ever caught one in service. That's a loss!As for GH & the Bx30, the pullout of the depot is around 10:00 or 10:15. DO NOT wait at the CoOp city terminal as the bus may not start or end there. Pick a stop in the center someplace. The pm's are sucky as the sun is feeble & shadows long. Hope that helps. jrc |

Not true; EYE care whatever MEANINGFUL offering someone has to say, not nonsensical drivel. (crikey)Now, not one person has claimed to see a vintage BX7 or verified it with fotos. I LIKE PROOF, even if you state they ran. What you "heard" is not good enough; sorry. That's hearsay and you know what happens to hearsay in court. jrc |

Not true; EYE care whatever MEANINGFUL offering someone has to say, not nonsensical drivel. (crikey) Many here seem not to care, and only care about furthering the agenda of the nonsensical drivel brigade. They'd rather beat their own chests with incorrect information than hear the truth. As such, they will be left to wallow in bad information. Now, not one person has claimed to see a vintage BX7 or verified it with fotos. I LIKE PROOF, even if you state they ran. What you "heard" is not good enough; sorry. That's hearsay and you know what happens to hearsay in court. Yes, it's not first hand information, but it came via people I find to be vastly more intelligent and reliable than the nonsensical drivel brigade. |

The Bx30 bus will get to Baychester and Bartow sometime after 11:30...for a good door-side picture. Thanks to the traffic pattern there, unless someone is crossing on the south side of Bartow, your angle will be unobstructed.As for the Bx7 - I wouldn't even try. |
