Greyhound is now primarily a limited stops express service operation, rather than all stops locals on other routes as
in the past. Such regional carriers as Adirondack Trailways, New York Trailways, Pine Hill Trailways, Empire Transit Lines,
and Hudson Transit Lines, to name a few, all operate routes that were once operated by Greyhound Lines at one time. A few
routes Greyhound once operated have since been discontinued altogether. In western New York,D&F Transit and Blue Bird
Coach Lines, to name two of WNY's major regionals, built their route networks off of former Greyhound routes. Of the Blue
Bird routes, only the Buffalo-East Aurora - Olean route is still in operation and by Coach USA, successor to Blue Bird Coach
Lines. Buffalo-Dunkirk-Jamestown is now part of Empire Transit Lines, which also operates Jamestown to Olean.
