* This was the only one that I couldn't follow in my Jeff Co Map Book. The 1960 Transit Map shows only the streets on the route, and doesn't use "St, Rd, Blvd" etc - so what it shows is the bus going down 18th Street, then taking a left on "Mayfair" and jogging down a bit to "Windsor", apparently crossing Independence Drive in the process. Durham is on the east side of 31. --[[User:Dystopos|Dystopos]] 07:18, 17 October 2006 (PDT) | * This was the only one that I couldn't follow in my Jeff Co Map Book.

1960 route
I'm not understanding the 1960 route. I followed 18th Street to Mayfair Drive. Then there's a Windsor Boulevard south of there, but you have to go out to Highway 31 to get from one to the other. Durham Drive isn't on the map. I looked at the 1959 map at [1], and it doesn't look like the roads have changed much since then, except for Devonshire Drive no longer going into Howard/Samford from the back. Several of the roads on the 1959 map aren't labeled, so it is possible some names have changed. --Lkseitz 07:02, 17 October 2006 (PDT)

- Oh, there's Windsor Drive, above Durham. Okay, so the bus must have gone down Montgomery Highway to Old Montgomery Highway, then left on Windsor. Then it had to head south on Rumson Rd or Windsor Terrace to Yorkshire and on to Durham. Seems awfully complicated. --Lkseitz 13:00, 17 October 2006 (PDT)
