HistoryThe origins of the company date back to 1908, when Frank Martz Sr. founded the White Transit Company in Plymouth, Pennsylvania, operating between mining towns in the Coal Region. In 1912, Martz Sr. started local routes in the Luzerne County area, which were sold to the Luzerne County Transportation Authority in 1974. Martz Sr. founded the Frank Martz Coach Company in 1922 to offer intercity bus service. By 1927, the Frank Martz Coach Company had routes operating from Wilkes-Barre to New York City, Philadelphia, Albany, New York, Syracuse, New York, Buffalo, New York, Cleveland, Detroit, and Chicago. In 1926, Martz Sr. began airline service between New York City, Elmira, New York, and Buffalo. The airline service was discontinued in 1933 due to the Great Depression. Martz Sr. was one of the founders of the National Trailways Bus System, which formed a national bus system through alliances between multiple carriers, competing with Greyhound Lines for national bus service.[18] Martz Sr. died in 1936 and his son Frank Martz Jr. took over the company. The company continued to grow in the following years. Martz Jr. was killed in a helicopter accident in 1964, and ownership of the company passed to Frank M. Henry, the grandson of company founder Martz Sr. Ownership of the company remains within the family, with Scott Henry of the fourth generation currently President of Martz Group.[18] In 2016, Martz Group went through a rebranding, in which they added 116 coaches, new operations in Washington, D.C., Virginia, and Florida, and the introduction of Martz Luxury Service. The company also upgraded buses.[19] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|title=Daily Passenger Service Schedules|publisher=Martz Trailways|url=http://martztrailways.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/MartzSchedules717.pdf|accessdate=October 16, 2017}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Departures from Pennsylvania|publisher=Martz Trailways|url=http://martztrailways.com/departures-from-pennsylvania/|accessdate=October 16, 2017}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=City Fares|publisher=Martz Trailways|url=http://martztrailways.com/city-fares/|accessdate=October 16, 2017}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Commuter Fares|publisher=Martz Trailways|url=http://martztrailways.com/commuter-fares/|accessdate=October 16, 2017}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Common Charter Questions|publisher=Martz Trailways|url=http://martztrailways.com/martz-charters/|accessdate=October 16, 2017}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Welcome to Martz Tours!|publisher=Martz Group|url=http://www.martztours.com/|accessdate=October 16, 2017}} 7. ^1 {{cite web|title=MTA Commuter Service|publisher=Martz Gold Line|url=https://www.martzgoldline.com/mta-commuter-service/|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 8. ^{{cite web|title=202 Commuter Bus schedule|publisher=Maryland Transit Administration|url=https://www.martzgoldline.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/202ScheduleEff03-01-16.pdf|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 9. ^{{cite web|title=610 Commuter Bus schedule|publisher=Maryland Transit Administration|url=https://www.martzgoldline.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/610CommuterLine11-9-15.pdf|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 10. ^{{cite web|title=620 Commuter Bus schedule|publisher=Maryland Transit Administration|url=https://www.martzgoldline.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/620CommuterLine11-9-15.pdf|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 11. ^{{cite web|title=650 Commuter Bus schedule|publisher=Maryland Transit Administration|url=https://www.martzgoldline.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/650CommuterBusJune2015.pdf|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 12. ^{{cite web|title=810 Commuter Bus schedule|publisher=Maryland Transit Administration|url=https://www.martzgoldline.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/810CommuterLine.pdf|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 13. ^{{cite web|title=Fredericksburg Commuter Schedule|publisher=Martz National Coach Works|url=https://martzgroupva.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Fredericksburg1-2-17rev.pdf|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 14. ^{{cite web|title=705 Commuter Bus schedule|publisher=Maryland Transit Administration|url=https://martzgroupva.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/705CommuterBusJune2015.pdf|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 15. ^{{cite web|title=715 Commuter Bus schedule|publisher=Maryland Transit Administration|url=https://martzgroupva.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/715CommuterBusJune2015.pdf|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 16. ^{{cite web|title=Virginia - Common Charter Questions|publisher=Martz National Coach Works|url=https://martzgroupva.com/martz-charters/|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 17. ^{{cite web|title=Charter Buses|publisher=Martz First Class|url=https://www.martzfirstclass.com/martz-charters/|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 18. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|title=Frank Martz Coach Co.
