Except at 61st St./Grand Ave. checking 3 bus stops for Q39/59 no bus stop code #,s listed.

Considering the planning one would think they would be 100% ready to go.

That's not a mistake — it's the path of an off-route "tripper" from Archbishop Molloy High School.

B74, Q70 (Re: MTA BusTime in Brooklyn & Queens is available now)

One thing I noticed on the B74 and Q70...

Both are scheduled as "loops" (all layover at one end), so all B74 trips in both directions show as "STILLWELL AV" and all Q70 trips in both directions show as "LIMITED LAGUARDIA AIRPORT."

I don't think any of them are up, my guess is they won't start going up until Monday.

I don't understand why at some locations what's actually one bus stop is shown as two.

For instance, bus stops 503300 and 904147 are at the same physical location and occupy the same physical space, yet they're represented as two distinct bus stops, one for each of the two routes that stop there.

Q5/Q85 Caldor stop (Re: MTA BusTime in Brooklyn & Queens is available now)

There is a stop on the Q5/85 called GREEN ACRES-CALDOR.


Caldor(a very nice chain store) went out of businesses nearly 15 years ago - - nobody bothers to update this? And isn't Sterns closed?

I also noticed the Stern's stop as well. Stern's closed 13 years ago.
