The route proceeds west on a private right-of-way (155th Street) parallel to Flushing Avenue until Grove Street (90th Avenue), east on Grove, then south on Washington Street (160th Street) to the terminal area at Fulton Street (Jamaica Avenue). The terminus was shared with the Far Rockaway streetcar line, today's Q111 and Q113 buses, which proceeded south.
  • Highlighted in light blue is the modern Q65 bus route, which follows 164th Street, Hillside Avenue, Parsons Boulevard, Jamaica Avenue (westbound / southbound) or Archer Avenue (eastbound / northbound) to the modern Jamaica LIRR station at Sutphin Boulevard.
