The following is from a caption from John F. Doyle's "CHICAGO MOTOR COACH COMPANY" (photo shows a "SOUTH SUBURBAN SAFEWAY LINES" Old Look, in 1951)......

".......Safeway was asuburban operator, and would share Michigan Avenue and South Park with CMCCo........."

"......Bus No. 871 will terminate its run at the Trailways bus depot at 20 East Randolph, near Wabash....."

"......Safeway was affiliated with Trailways, using their red and cream colors and Hobo font script......."
