So I used a level 50 boost to bring an existing level 2 character up to Shadowlands readiness, and I have grown him to level 52 from playing the story line starting with the Maw, Oribos, and now Bastion. However I want to take breaks from that and go do some transmog farming in old dungeons or raids.
I was able to pick up the WoD quest line and get my Garrison built, and thereafter it was possible for me to visit all the dungeons and raids in Draenor. Unfortunately I have not been able to figure out how to do the same for Outland (i.e. The Burning Crusade). I tried to pick up quests from the Stormwind Hero Board but so far have not uncovered any that would allow me to initiate the quest line for that expansion.
Any help would be much appreciated, thank you very much!
First, make sure you have trivial quest tracking turned on. (It’s one of the options on the magnifying glass on the minimap.)
Next, the starter quest you are looking for from the Hero’s Call board is “Hellfire Peninsula.” The board tends to list stuff as newest stuff first, so you may have to accept a bunch of other quests from the board before you unbury it.
Alternately, you can skip the breadcrumb quest and take the portal to Shattrath, and then fly to the dark portal to get “Arrival in Outland” from Commander Duron.
(If you just want to do the dungeons, you don’t even need to do all that. Just take the portal to Shattrath and fly to the various dungeons.)

Thanks Udiza for your suggestions.
I tried to work with the Hero Board but there were just too many quests, I filled up my Quest Log before finding anything related to Burning Crusade. So after doing more searches and still unable to find a solution anywhere, I went back to Shattrath.
There I found Spymistress Mehlisah Highcrown, who gave the quest “Trouble at Auchindoun”. When I went out to Auchindoun, I found out that the Shadow Labyrinth dungeon was now available. I continued with the quest, as well as a couple other quests I found inside the dungeon.
When I was done with the Shadow Labyrinth, I went back out, looked around Auchindoun, and Bingo, the other 3 dungeons were now available to my character too.
I then went to Hellfire Peninsula to see if I could access the dungeons in that zone, and yes, they were all available. So I’m all set now. Thanks again for your help. Maybe someone else who runs into this same problem will find this useful.
Cheers to everyone. Have fun with the game. I started when it was released, but have been away for a couple years, it’s good to be back, getting into Shadowlands and also re-visiting old legacy instances.
