What are the dates for the last Green Lines, Triboro, Jamaica, and Command newlooks ran?I don't really expect anyone to know but when I found out the last newlook was retired by the TA in the summer of '95 I was behind the times by a few months and very surprised that one had lasted into 1995. |

The NY Bus service did the Green and Triboro ones were from '79. The last I remember seeing Green Lines newlooks in Rockaway was about the summer of 1994. I certainly do not recall seeing them after 1994. And I purposely excluded NY Bus because I know they ran until 2005 or early '06. Someone can clarify that exact date please. |
