Message board thread about this renumbering. I have placed this here until the MTA makes the change offical. Ken S. 19:05, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
The title pretty much says all. I remember seeing this route on bus signs in green, and if I'm right, it operated (or still operates) in Manhattan. What happened to it, because I don't see it on the list. — Imdanumber1 ( talk • contribs • email) 01:13, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
Wouldn't it make more sense to "name" these by AM peak direction? (Example: Queens to Manhattan)
(I realize that each section shows "peak" or "daily" service...but...)
Remember also, these routes were named with the "outer" borough as the prefix and with the "X" suffix way back when. (Example: Q51X)
Thanks for your consideration.

PS - also need x32 (Queens to Bronx) thrown in.
Shouldn't the QBx1's wikitable be moved to
List of bus routes in Queens, and just have the route added to the "Local" list of
List of express and multi-borough bus routes in New_York_City, but also rename that "Local" section to "MTA New York City Bus and MTA Bus Company"? Note that numerous Bus Company routes are already (erroneously) listed under "New York City Bus" in that section. Also, please note in
Talk:List_of_bus_routes_in_Queens, there is a negative entry in respect to what I'm asking. Please advise, as the QBx1 seems to be the only local route with a multi-borough prefix, but since the "first" prefix is "Q", shouldn't it be included primarily on the Queens routes page?

I've taken a bit of break for a while, and things have gotten sort of messy. The point is, something needs to be done to clean up the express bus table. The current table, looks like this:
Route | Service | Terminals | Manhattan streets traveled |
Staten Island streets traveled |
Notes/History | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
X1
|
|
Eltingville Transit Center |
Midtown Manhattan Central Park South |
5 Avenue/6 Avenue, Broadway | Hylan Boulevard, Richmond Avenue |
|
I would like to revise it to look like this:
Route | Terminals | via | Notes/History | |
---|---|---|---|---|
x1
[1]
|
Midtown Manhattan Central Park South and Seventh Avenue |
Eltingville Transit Center | In Manhattan: Sixth Avenue (NB) & Fifth Avenue, Broadway (SB) In Staten Island: Hylan Boulevard, Richmond Avenue |
|
The new table would do away with the two separate column listing for the streets used along the route, and the service column, which could easily be replaced with something in the notes/history to the effect of "Daily service" as seen above, or something more fleshed out, like here.

TransportAzumah is operating buses and vans using the X25, X29, X90, and QM22 designations for starters. TransportAzumah Info Ken S. ( talk) 09:16, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
I've seen pages like " QM1 (New York City bus)" and " BM5 (New York City bus)" just redirect to the specified bus numbers, but ones such as " X1 (New York City bus)" and " X17 (New York City bus)"(<-This route doesn't really exist along) does not redirect very well. Any fix possible? (Not mandatory, but those links helped me success at making specific local and express bus template. Thank You!) —Preceding unsigned comment by " SimonOrJ"( U/ T/ C) added 03:28, 5 April 2012 (UTC).
