The bus system that came to be known as the Greyhound Bus Company
was founded by Carl Eric Wickman, an enterprising Swede of Hibbing,
Minnesota. The first bus was a seven-passenger Hupmobile touring
car that was used to transport miners across the Mesaba Iron Range
to and from work. Wickman was soon joined by another Swede, Andrew
Anderson, and they began operating in earnest the route from a
saloon in Hibbing to the fire-hall in Alice. From this lowly
beginning grew the Greyhound Corporation, a multi-million dollar
company which, through the years, has owned everything from a chain
of hamburger restaurants to a soap company.
