Ok. 79 must have been out if even 42 in before them.
Is that the actual ticket you're looking at or a BARB assignment?

Years ago, before L'56 and 58 were in service, L37 was second due at the box (3323) right around the block at Southern Boulevard and 187th Street. L27 was second due here at 3303.

Just for the sake of discussion, 79/37 measure 1.5 mi from box 3303 and they have no traffic or traffic lights for much of that run along Southern boulevard from Webster Avenue to Fordham Road.
E42= 1.9 mi, E75 =2.0mi. That's half a mile difference, plus traffic. How do they figure that?

That might be BARB doing what it does best - screwing assignments up

No traffic?
When was the last time you visited that area?

I grew up there and had lunch on Arthur Avenue just a few weeks ago. The stretch of Southern Boulevard that runs between the Botanical Gardens and Fordham University all the way to Fordham Road is a piece of cake compared to Engine 42 coming all the way across Tremont Avenue or Engine 75 coming all the way across Fordham Road.
