"......I once scored big-time with a rare OVERLAND sign; OVERHAND GREYHOUND LINES once ran from Chicago and Kansas City, and west through Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas to Denver, Salt Lake City, San Francisco, and Los Angeles......"

"........another prize was an 'OVERLAND ROUTE' sign, in the shape of the Union Pacific's shield. The railroad had started 'OVERLAND', and had operated it until later being sold to GREYHOUND........."

Excellent, in-depth page on Pennsylvania Greyhound Lines*..............

https://bluehoundsandredhounds.info/?page_id=122

*Note info on prefix numbering (like PSNJ) and interline/pool operations, as well as the various models of buses operated.

Also, in my collection I have a LARGE (and quite rare) tin litho PD-4104, lettered for PGL

I have seen 1950s/1960s photos of some of the buses that ran for "TCL", including some of those handsome and stylish PD-4103s; I well remember buses of this type in charter service in my area, back in the 1960s....... Very Happy
