Intercity Bus Lines of the Southwest A Photographic History

Travel between southwestern towns at the turn of the century was an arduous experience. There were no longer any stagecoaches to carry travelers. Railroads did criss-cross the region, but they did not go through every burg. Motor cars were appearing, but not everyone could afford them. W. B. Chenoweth saw this void in transportation service. He designed a six-cylinder "motor driven stage coach," and in 1907 he coaxed a few passengers into the vehicle for a trip from Colorado City to Snyder, Texas.Rhodes, Jack is the author of 'Intercity Bus Lines of the Southwest A Photographic History' with ISBN 9781585440153 and ISBN 1585440159.
