Actually, 1958 - but yeah, very informative.
When the 1962 TWU strike against FACL and ST that led to the creation of " 'stoa" was going on, The New York Times apparently relied on this map for explanations of which routes were out of service as a result, not even accounting for, as but one example, the M-101's change in route description to "Third, Lexington & Amsterdam Avenues," the creation of the short-run branch from 125th to 23d Streets (The Times did that, '2d' and '3d' in those days), or the seasonal-only Bx-50 - Freedomland route. I think their coverage even incorporated the two ex-NYCO Lexington Avenue routes (#3 and #4) that were defunct for nearly two years at that point. |
