Scenicruising
  

BUSES magazine “This is truly an extraordinary history … authoritative, painstakingly researched and highly readable… Paul von Fange tells this and much more in this masterpiece, which is one of the best-researched and written bus books ever to cross the editorial desk. You do not need to have a prior interest in American buses to enjoy it, but if you do, you will find it especially irresistible.” BUS RIDER magazine “Paul von Fange writes the book on Scenicruisers … [it] is a phenomenal research effort … [a] must read … Bill Luke … took honor in providing the foreword, commending von Fange for his penchant for detail in providing the most complete and accurate history on one of the most iconic vehicles the industry has ever seen.” From Raymond Loewy’s original design to the radically modified GX-2 until the 1954 production of the PD-4501, the Greyhound Scenicruiser has been an American icon and remains so to this day, especially in the hearts and minds of those who keep them going. This is that story.
