Lordsburg Division Leads in Safety First Record
The Lordsburg division of Pacific Greyhound, from El Paso to Douglas and on to Safford, has held the Safety First record for two years. Beginning January 21, 1951, a company wide contest will challenge this achievement as experienced drivers, trained crews, and reliable service continue to be emphasized. A Liberal reporter rode with Driver A G Moody and noted the care and timeliness of the routes, including transporting a seven year old girl from El Paso to Tacoma with minimal stops and comfortable seating. Moody, with 11 years in big bus operation, noted the drivers act as highway barometers, offering dependable highway condition reports given the routes served.
