“Fairbanks” Bus
Reaches Seattle
SEATTLE, (/P)—A bus carrying
the placard “Fairbanks” swung
down Fifth Avenue yesterday af
ter a 4,000-mile trip south over
the Alaska Highway, probably the
first passenger coach over the
route.
Paul Greiman, owner of a Fair
banks bus company and co-driver
with Walter Burr, said they en
countered 45-below weather and
were held up two days at White
horse, Y. T., by engine trouble but
that the smoothly frozen highway
helped out.
“I had to come down to get rugs,
bedding and other equipment for
apartments I manage," Greiman
said. "I also wanted to determine
whether or not Fairbanks-Seattle
bus service is feasible. I’ve decid
ed it is.”
Five passengers came along and
were charged about $80 each on
the non-profit venture. Two were
dropped off at Great Falls, Mont.,
two at Spokane and Ed Grotecloss,
New York City, came here. Burr’s
wife and daughter met him here
