Red Star To Show
Newest Type Bus


Red Star Coaches which become
part of the Trailways Bus System
on July 1st, is to exhibit one of it's
new 41-passenger diesel buses here
on June 25th. This bus will be sta
toned at the Bus Terminal from
AIS p. m. to 500 p. m, so bus
patrons may get a first-hand look
at the type buses which have gone
into thru service between Norfolk
and New York over the Red Star
lines. This coach is provided with
the latest type air conditioning
equipment with a separate air con-
ditiOning motor in a special mid
ship compartment. The main driV-
ing engine is in the rear of the
coach separated from the passenger
compartment with a sound proof
well to make it one of the quietest
coaches on the American highways.
The new buses in service between
Norfolk and New York were manu-
featured by the General Motors
Corporation, coach division, and
according to Trailways spokesmen
cost over $30,0OOOO each.
Red Star Coaches began thru bus
service between Norfolk and New
York on April 9th, which has re-
suited in travel time by express
bus between these two cities being
cut to as low as 1914 hours. The
quickest trip between these points
is one routed over U. S. Route 13
to Wilmington, Del, and from there
over the Delaware Memorial Bridge
and New Jersey Turnpike to New
York. There are thru trips daily
between Norfolk and New York
with one additional departure max
ing connections for New York at
the Philadelphia Terminal
Another recently added travel
convenience, especially to residents
of Virginia's' Eastern shore points,
is new thru bus service from
Eastern Shore Points to Richmond,
Virginia.
This is the first time Eastern
Shore residents have been able to
reach their state capital without
changes enrOute. The Richmond
thru BUS, after arrival at the Nor
folk Terminal on Plume Street, con-
tinues to Richmond through Ports
mouth, Suffolk and Petersburg.
On December Goth of last year
officials of Red Star Coaches and
Eastern Shore Transit agreed to
merge these properties into Caro-
lima Trailways. The Interstate Com
merce Commission has approved
this merger to become effective
July 1st.
Carolina TrailWays officials ex-
plain that plans are underway to
add new through routes to serve
the DelmarVa area, and to eventual
ly replace the current Red Star
buses with a new diesel-pOwered
air conditioned feet.
Accompanying the e xiii bit 10 n
coach here are: Trailways travel
ing passenger agents, James w
Geddes, of Salisbury, Md. and Ed
ward w. Croft of Norfolk; and John
