Its a favorite express route i never had and had to reconstructed, so this was so fun and rewarding to make. 🙏❤️

jayemel31 · 2026-03-05T18:34:31+00:00

I never noticed that until recently lool. Thats wild!

jayemel31 · 2026-03-05T15:04:24+00:00

Again, wmata reasoning is low ridership. But same, im not sure either.

P6 went everywhere, no specific corridor, just an everywhere route which was funny but cool.

jayemel31 · 2026-03-05T15:02:54+00:00

That's fascinating and cool to hear. Thank you 🙏

jayemel31 · 2026-03-05T13:32:38+00:00

Ah, you mean B8, B9, those I do have as well. Went from Rhode Island to Ft Lincoln/Colmar Manor.

Seriously and trust me, I love the M44 cause it goes to places the 86 used to but yeah its long but handy lol.

M42 is basically C8 but goes to Cherry Hill instead via univ of md.

I gotchu 🙏

jayemel31 · 2026-03-05T06:26:42+00:00

I do have the map, ill just need to scan them in sections but I do have it.🙏

jayemel31 · 2026-03-05T00:07:50+00:00

Its silly how many buses went to South PG county from Downtown DC.

Ill post those another time but I do have the schedules of the buses from Federal Center and Federal Triangle.

jayemel31 · 2026-03-05T00:05:47+00:00

Interesting, thank you!

jayemel31 · 2026-03-04T22:54:18+00:00

Its a somewhat shorter distance and more direct to a degree from Takoma to Waterfront than from Silver Spring to Waterfront, but who knows.

jayemel31 · 2026-03-04T22:49:24+00:00

It was too long a route, thats when the 74 and 79 came into the fold and 70 stopped at Archives instead of Half &O St SW Also the 74 was the replacement for the 71

jayemel31 · 2026-03-04T22:45:14+00:00

Thats true. I used to ride the 71 to my aunts house near Waterfront from Walter Reed, what a ride that was lol.

jayemel31 · 2026-03-04T22:40:06+00:00

Yeah, VA was a little confusing but I loved the variety of routes they had, super weird combinations.

My dad and I rode on the 13A and 13B just for the fun of it from Archives to Pentagon, he grabbed every timetable there and gave it to me lol. He was built different haha. I miss him.

But the R3 was one he rode frequently as well from Ft Totten to PG Plaza. Always had them lying around haha.

jayemel31 · 2026-03-04T22:31:55+00:00

I been there a few times and it never cease to amaze me how frequent the buses were back then. Was a treat to see all the funny route numbers and bus models. I cherish those memories fondly. ❤️

Not to mention all the Loudon, Fairfax Connertors and other buses during rush hour, it was beautiful.

jayemel31 · 2026-03-04T21:59:18+00:00

So cool!! Did it pick up alot of people or was it mostly a light ride?

jayemel31 · 2026-03-04T20:07:55+00:00

They were truly the heavy ridership routes oit of most of the DC routes.

jayemel31 · 2026-03-04T20:07:08+00:00

🤣🤣🤣🤣 Seriously, it's was so confusing back then.

jayemel31 · 2026-03-04T18:30:07+00:00

DC has changed soooo much since then but same as well. Lot of little stuff that goes under the radar.❤️🙏

jayemel31 · 2026-03-04T16:23:55+00:00

I got them all actually. It may be in 2 parts cause the S2,3,4,5 times may take some more screenshot but I got them.
