YO MACKA Poem by anthony blakePRESERVATION BUS HISTORYWhat do Vintage and Antique have in common? Here’s a clue, a Hound Bus with a yesteryear start So the clue wasn’t any help you say It’s the Greyhound Mack Bus 1931 The Front could be considered something from the Ford Model-T So since the secret is out, and you now know what I am talking about There were many variations of the 1931 Mack, but some with my liking is the Camel Hair seat and even a little Seat in the middle of the aisle for a little Tot
But Dazzle in the sleek Navy Blue and White The 1931 Mack is quite a sight It has a unique look Imagine Mr. MAGOO calling the Hound Bus Mack 1931 a road hog But the Mack’s response would be “My Headlights flashing in stating never forget as it is a Vintage in the Greyhound Fleet” Now that is really neat But I have seen the 1931 Mack Hound Bus up close and personal It was 2014 at the Meadowlands in New Jersey celebrating Greyhound’s 100thAnniversary and the 1931 Mack was exactly the way it was always pictured But wait, there’s more I have a Toy Model of the Mack 1931 Bus Burlington Trailways in my Personal Bus Collection, and it is made out of Plywood and the Greyhound 1931 Dieast Well time really moved fast, and our journey did last As a Buddy to Buddy would say, “So long Mack”.
