Greyhound Lines - Past Coaches With Nicknames

Past Coaches With Nicknames

  • General Motors PD-4501 Scenicruiser
  • Motor Coach Industries MC 5A
  • Motor Coach Industries MC 6 Supercruiser
  • Motor Coach Industries MC 7 Scenicruiser Super 7
  • Motor Coach Industries MC 8 Americruiser (aka Crusader)
  • Motor Coach Industries MC 9 Americruiser II (aka Crusader II)

Later models such as the A series and the MC-12 bore only the Americruiser name. MCI D and G series, Prevost, and Van Hool coaches do not carry nicknames. For several years after the purchase of Trailways, Inc., by Greyhound Lines, Inc., in 1987, Greyhound operated also a number of Eagles, the signature Trailways coach, which had come from the Trailways fleet. Since the transition period after the merger, Greyhound has no longer operated Eagle coaches. Photos show Eagles with Greyhound paint schemes, a Trailways paint scheme with a dog logo, and a Trailways paint scheme with the required Greyhound legal lettering. Foreign examples are for unaffiliated Greyhound Australia and apparently Costa Rica.

Famous quotes containing the word coaches:

    The real persuaders are our appetites, our fears and above all our vanity. The skillful propagandist stirs and coaches these internal persuaders.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
