TrailwaysNY, as it is known, operates over 150 trips per day to more than 140 destinations in New York, New Jersey, and Canada. It is the largest and longest continuously operating intercity bus carrier in New York State, an interline partner with Greyhound, and a member of the National Trailways Network.[6]

History[edit]

Founded in 1926 by the Van Gonsic Berardi family, Trailways of New York first began as the Rip Van Winkle brand with commuter service between New York City and the Hudson Valley.[7] During the 1930s, following a series of early successes in the then newly-emerging bus industry, service was first extended from its original Hudson Valley and Metro New York home into the Adirondacks.

Over time, Trailways of New York's holdings grew to include the Dixie Bus Center in New York City,[8] the Pine Hill-Kingston Bus Corporation[9], and other properties.

Expansion came yet again in the 1990s, marking the companies' largest growth since the first half of the 20th century. During this time service was expanded to include Long Island and the nearby Canadian cities of Montreal, Quebec and Toronto, Ontario. A long term revenue sharing partnership was also established with Greyhound Bus Lines to provide enhanced service and reliability to the customers of both brands.[10]

Affiliated with the Trailways Transportation System, Trailways of New York also offers connections with Academy Bus, Fullington Trailways, Greyhound Lines, Greyhound Lines of Canada, Martz Trailways, Barons Bus Lines, Bieber Transportation Group, Short Line (bus company) (Coach USA), Lakefront Lines, and Peter Pan Bus Lines.[11]

Trailways of New York once owned the Central Union Bus Terminal, also known as the Dixie Bus Center, which opened in April 1930 in what was then the Dixie Hotel in New York City. At the time, it was the largest enclosed bus station in New York. Buses entered next to the hotel’s entrance on West 43rd and proceeded underground, where they would rotate on a 35-foot turntable, then proceed into a designated berth. A waiting room for passengers was off to one side. Unable to compete with Port Authority Bus Terminal, which opened in 1950, the Hotel Dixie’s bus terminal closed in 1957. Today, the underground space is a parking garage and the hotel is now the Carter Hotel; the original turntable and waiting room floor are still visible.[12]

Trailways of New York has been a chief “front of shirt” sponsor of the Kingston Stockade Football Club since its inception in 2015[13] and runs special “fan buses” to away games. The Kingston Stockade FC, a franchise in the National Premier Soccer League, plays its home games at Dietz Stadium in Kingston, NY and was founded by FourSquare CEO Dennis Crowley.[14]

In 2019, an Adirondack Trailways bus crashed on Route 80 in Parsippany, New Jersey, killing one passenger and seriously injuring two. [15]

Bus theft[edit]

In 2010, Darius McCollum was caught behind the wheel of a stolen Trailways NY bus en route to Kennedy Airport. McCollum is best known for his theft of 'an E Train filled with passengers from 34th Street to The World Trade Center' when he was only 15 years old.[16] This theft marked McCollum's 27th arrest for a transit related crime. For the theft, he was sentenced to 2 1/2 to 5 years in prison.[17]
