I should have artics but I don't. I have limited-stop service rush hours but should have them all day. My travel time is 45 minutes. What route am I?

My route covers two boroughs, and it provides access to two parks, neither of which are in Manhattan. My final stop does not connect with any other bus routes.

Many have said that I need to be split into 2 separate routes.
a good portion of the people that ride me... are laborers... lol...
I'm part of a service that does NOT run on sundays...
From end-to-end, my total running time is around 2.5 hrs
for quicker access to me on fridays... hop on the "cannonball"


what route am I?

Okay, I'll do another one.

My route runs exclusively in the Bronx. During the first 15 blocks of my route, it connects with 3 train stations. During the remaining 35-odd blocks of my route, it connects with no trains at all. The bulk of my route covers an avenue sharing its name with a major New York City park.

w/o looking at a map...

I was thinking about central park... but central park av is in westchester (Bl-20)... can't be that... and there's a central av in brooklyn, but a) no bus routes run along that street & b) it aint in the bronx... lol...

so I thought about prospect park... there is a prospect av in the bronx... and the Bx17 runs along it... so that's my guess bro...

the Bx17 ?

I once ran my route from Sunrise Mall to Walt Whitman Mall. I once connected with the N71 @ Sunrise and N72 @ Farmingdale. My southern Terminal is in Kohl's of Sunrise Highway. Now I don't exist anymore.

What am I?

rt 25 is queens blvd.... the Q60 runs along it.
rt 25a is northern blvd... the Q12 runs along that...

the N20 goes to hicksville, and runs along northern blvd...
there aint no bus along QB that goes to hicksville...

The Q60's eastern terminus is closer to LIRR trackage than the Q12's eastern terminus...

The Q12's projected runtime is closer to 45 mins. than the Q60's....

I honestly don't know if you're referring to the Q12 or the Q60

*shrugs*
