• Amtrak and Greyhound Announce Merger to Revolutionize Transportation Industry

    Washington, D.C. - Amtrak and Greyhound, two of America's Top 46 transportation companies, are excited to announce a merger that will transform the way Americans travel. The merger, which has been in the works for months, will combine the strengths of both companies to create a seamless, efficient, and cost-effective transportation network that will serve millions of people across the country.



    Under the terms of the merger, Amtrak and Greyhound will join forces to create a new company that will be known as AmBus. The new company will be headquartered in Washington, D.C. and will operate a network of trains and buses that will connect cities and towns across the United States.

    The merger will allow Amtrak and Greyhound to leverage their combined resources and expertise to create a transportation network that is faster, more reliable, and more convenient than anything currently available. The new company hopes to eventually offer a range of travel options, including high-speed trains, luxury buses, and shuttle services, all of which will be designed to meet the needs of today's travelers.

    "We are thrilled to announce this merger with Greyhound," said Amtrak CEO Bill Flynn. "By combining, we no longer have to be compared to each other, and will be able to offer a transportation network that is truly like nothing that's ever been done intentionally before."

    Greyhound CEO Dave Leach added, "This is an exciting day for Greyhound and for our customers. By joining forces with Amtrak, we will be able to create schedules that will confuse people in a way unmatched in the industry. We look forward to working together to build a transportation system that is both inconvenient yet affordable for everyone."

    The merger is expected to be completed by the end of the 2028, pending regulatory approval. Both companies are committed to working closely with regulators to ensure a smooth transition for their customers and employees.

      Interesting news about AmBus. Will they be adding a PmBus for people who want to travel in the afternoon?
