GLEN ELLYN FEEDER ROUTES

Feeder network developed by village of Glen Ellyn, and known as Glen Ellyn Transit ("GET"). Originally six routes introduced 5/1/74. Service was generally operated by contract operators, often school bus companies. Unless noted, routes operated under contract by Commuter Bus Systems until 1986, when assumed by Du Page Motor Coach Co./Glen Ellyn, which evolved to First Student. All of these routes were eventually discontinued.
