Description Welcome to the Metro Bus Sign Series, where you will witness the bus signs combining the past with the present and the future. In this installment, we take a look at Line 206. Line 206 is a daily route that runs almost exclusively on Normandie Avenue, have nightly and weekday early morning services, and goes between Hollywood and Athens. At one point in time, the line had its southern terminus ended [and began] at Normandie and Rosecrans Avenues to connect to the Line 125, but that has since moved to its current terminus at Vermont Avenue and 120th Street via Vermont/Athens Green Line Station, probably since the line's debut in August 1995 -- see Line 125 for more details.

Here's the current map and timetables of Line 206:

No. the logo period. If it isn't bad infrastructure that causes delays out here, it's the lack of details and communication on signage, from workers and about disruptions.

NYC has the largest transit system, and unfortunately, the largest bureaucracy slowing it down.
