Posted by r17-6599 on Sun Jun 3 22:42:51 2012 Yesterday and today (still going on presently) the (4) subway line was out for track/ signal work from 161st up to Woodlawn. Many passengers took the nearby (D) line but from Bedford Park to Woodlawn, shuttle buses operated. It was especially neat seeing the seldom seen (in this neighborhood) CNG buses, and even neater, the new NF C40LF's; those are clear faves of mine, hand down.As if that weren't enough, NYPD and Parks Dept set up along the Grand Concourse barricades in anticipation of a street parade today, which ran from about noon to 4pm. So, the shuttle buses had to run special detour routes as did the Bx26. When the street parade began the detours were themselves detoured! Here's a set of pix from yesterday, followed by some today, including shots from my apartment window on the GC, the Bx 26 using the Bedford Park underpass and the shuttles on Mosholu pkwy, Bedford Park and Bainbridge Ave. Njoy, jrc 6270 6254 6004 under Jerome Ave el 4379 Bx10, 4334 Shuttle, Grand Concourse, Van Cortland Av 4375 312 (4) shuttle, Van Cortland Av 7646 under Jerome Av el 7704 6266 4430 Bx26 emerges from under the GC on Bedford Pk Blvd 4062 Bx26 heading under 4383 5702 Bx2 southbound, from my window MTAB 3381 275 northbound 4357 on Mosholu Pkwy 310 climbs up Bainbridge from Mosholu Pkwy center lane 310 on the GC 301 Bedford Pk and the GC 275 turns off Mosh Pkwy local road onto Bainbridge |
