Matter as a fact, all the Reston, Centerville, and most Southern routes were all WMATA routes at one point as we can remember. I believe 401/402 is Connector's busiest route? It carries very little end-to-end ridership - so 40-foot buses are almost always adequate. Hmm, perhaps at some point in the future.įairfax Connector has nearly 100 routes - but only a handful are true, major, all-day high-ridership corridors. It's not directly traceable to any single ex-Metrobus line. I think the 401/402 is mostly an "original creation" of Fairfax Connector. What years were "peak 11"? I am aware that this is former Metrobus territory - but I don't imagine the service was ever very strong. They acted as off-hours rail replacement routes - so they didn't require a typical "feeder" interface with the rail system. some of which served National Airport itself, but made no particular attempt to access the Metro station. That is so cool to think of National Airport as a legit Metrobus/Metrorail transfer station. The area wasn't nearly as developed at the time - Fairfax Connector service levels have grown with population and activity. Need to fan FFC on one of these weekends soon. The 310 I think is mostly Lorton with some occasional trips from West Ox during rush hours, though I don't know for sure. TAGS itself was transferred to Lorton from Cinder Bed depot (WMATA) as was it's fleet. The RIBS lines (similar to TAGS) is out of Reston. From what I can gather, I know for a fact that the 371, 372, and 373 lines are all out of Lorton (Huntington), as is the 401 and 402, with occasional trips from West Ox depot.
#699 FAIRFAX CONNECTOR SERIES#
Most of Reston Depot's fleet are 30/35 ft buses and a few 9700 series D40LFRs.Īs for routes.I'm not sure, I'm wondering that myself. I don't recall the exact numbers of D40LFRs and XD40s at each depot, but I know that Reston don't have any XD40s nor 9600 series D40LFRs, West Ox has half of the 9600 series LFRs, and Lorton (aka Huntington) has the rest of the 9600 LFRs, and the lion's share of the 2011-2013 XD40s ( in particular, #9645-967x).
You know exact numbers? What about where all the routes at? I actually drove to West Ox not too long ago, so I still have a clear picture of what is based there. The fleet hasn't really changed that much in the last 3-4 years.
#699 FAIRFAX CONNECTOR PLUS#
They also have all the 2015 XD40s (7795-7799),2018-19 XD40s and XD35s up to #7827 I believe while Lorton (Why is this garage called Huntington anyway? It's nowhere near that neighborhood) has #7828-7840 so far, the ex-WMATA 3G hybrids, most of the D40LFRs, and some 2014/15 XD35s, plus most of the 2011-13 XD40s. Last I checked, West Ox also had NGs #9770-9774 or so. I do not know which routes operate out of which though, all I know are the routes and fleets are spread across everywhere and I cannot exactly pinpoint where they are each. Note: Holidays are not necessarily observed and service may not be different from the usual for the day.Does anyone knows which routes and fleet operate out of each garage? The list on Wikipedia is hella outdated and I cannot plot buses for Fairfax Connector as easy like WMATA and Ride-On. Select in Stop Times for more specific holiday information.
