Greyhound

Greyhound was a very visible presence at the Fair. In addition to a fleet of vehicles, which are described below, the company's pavilion offered a number of slide shows and short films. Three different restaurants were available, as well as a chance to see Miss Greyhound, the  company's canine mascot, as she modeled clothing for dogs. (CD #30 Photolab #75)

One of the major transportation systems at the Fair was the well known Greyhound bus, usually seen transporting riders between distant cities. The exhaust of these diesel buses wasn't appreciated by passersby, but those inside could ride in air conditioned comfort. (CD #21 Set 111 #1)

During the 1939-1940 New York World's Fair Greyhound had operated a fleet of trams pulled by motorized tugs. The same concept was used for this Fair's Glide-a-ride trams, which offered a variety of guided tours across the grounds. (CD #19 Set 96 #6)

This is the unique Greyhound Escorter, which could be rented by the hour for custom designed trips. The Escorters were expensive to rent, ranging up to $11 per hour, and were only used during the 1964 season. (CD #18 Set 94 #6)
