The red Greyhound mystery was answered today. A new brand of service, called "YO BUS" is the new Greyhound Chinatown (ugh!) service. It hasn't seemed to have been officially rolled out yet. I couldn't get a pic of it at the PABT as I had a busload of people.

Greyhound's going to run a faux-China bus operation?!?!

They've already got regular Greyhound, express Greyhound, and Boltbus.

Might as well go for broke and compete with La Cubana uptown as well...

Wait second, seriously?! I saw a Yo Bus on the NJ Turnpike the other day and was wondering what it was. It had "Chinese" characters on the side so I thought it was a new Chinatown Bus start up, but I didn't realize it was Greyhound affiliated!

Apparently so. Not sure when they're launching Yo Bus, but I spotted 6554 in Yo Bus livery at Wilmington, Del. on Wednesday morning.

Great - yet another service that riders in non-competitive markets get to subsidize with high fares (or lose their service altogether).

I was thinking that also, but Johnny told me that it wasn't.

I don't think it goes to northern California.

Yes. The Peter Pan red is a different shade and still not lettered except for a very small Peter Pan graphic. I saw one this morning, so maybe my "mystery answered" posting was premature.
