Eastchester County - The Zip Line System

The **Zip-Line Bus System**, the bus system for Eastchester County, operates a network of bus routes throughout Eastchester County, serving destinations throughout much of the county and parts of The Bronx in New Era City. Even though not used officially by Zip-Line, routes tend to be identified with a "E" prefix (ex: E60), akin to the routing system in New Era City. The process is most evident at bus stops in the Bronx and usage by the NET and New York City government in various media. Alternatively, they are identified with the "ZL" prefix (ex: ZL60 or Z-L60), as seen on some maps and signage in the New Era City Subway system. These routes are listed below.

This table gives details for the Zip-Line routes. For details on non-Zip-Line routes, see the following articles:
