“He was listening to music when suddenly the person next to him began to stab him in the neck with a large butcher knife” causing many of the 37 passengers to flee the bus. “They returned to the back of the bus to find that the person who was stabbing the person in the neck had now sawed off the head of (the victim)” recalled an actual Greyhound Bus Line passenger traveling to Winnipeg Canada last summer.Greyhound began its operations in 1914 as the Mesaba Transportation Company in Hibbing, Minnesota. Swedish immigrant Carl Eric Wickman started the company by transporting miners from Hibbing, MN, to Alice, MN, for 15 cents a ride.


The Milesburg Pennsylvania rest stop, courtesy of Greyhound. With a mercifully brief 30 minute layover here, the 4425 bus is three to five hours quicker than the alternative schedules, which stop at the equally exciting but deceptively more lovely sounding Blue Mountain Plaza rest stop. The 1651 bus, though more scenic, is recommended only for the most masochistic of travelers. I've had the extreme "pleasure" having taken all 3 routes at various times over the years. Each time I tell myself "Never again!" but the money savings (with a 14 day advance ticket purchase) usually overcomes my memories.
