Vermont Transit Company, later Vermont Transit Lines, was founded in 1929 by William Appleyard and served the route between Burlington and Barre, Vermont. It ultimately expanded to serve most of the state of Vermont with service to Boston, Montreal, and Portland, Maine. The line was acquired by Greyhound Lines in 1975, but retained its name and livery until 2008.Acquisition
