They are probably good on fuel but with few riders the costs would be quite high. The bus is an inefficient way of hauling that small frieght trailer. Driver cost plus bus cost and operating cost of bus would be quite large without enough riders to pay costs of bus. Greyhound would never vacate western Canada if they had 50 passengers on the Bus.
