Company History: In 1953, the Milwaukee streetcars were sold to the Milwaukee & Suburban Transport Corporation with most streetcar routes converted to trolley buses and motor coaches. The destination sign, "No. 10 Wells", designates a former streetcar route while "No. 62 Capitol" had been a motor coach route since 1938. A weekly bus pass on these lines cost one dollar. The Transport Co. lasted until July 1, 1975, when the County of Milwaukee acquired ownership. Until that time, the Transport Co. was not publicly subsidized. This bus model, while similar to the ones used in Milwaukee, is not the exact model.
