- Richfield Bus Company is a bus operator in Minnesota, United States. It was founded in the Minneapolis suburb of Richfield in 1959 by George and Marilyn Holter, who began running a school bus route in Richfield. Through Heartland Tours and Travel, they operate tour buses to many destinations around North America. Richfield Bus runs a commuter coach to the southeastern city of Rochester where their affiliated company Rochester City Lines, which began in 1966, operates a network of commuter buses, and until 2012 operated a network of public transit buses. RCL and Richfield Bus also run local charter bus services in southeastern Minnesota and nearby Iowa and Wisconsin. Drivers of RCL's city buses within Rochester unionized in 2007 under the Amalgamated Transit Union, though that action did not include drivers for the commuter lines or charter buses. The Holter family still runs the company today, and they celebrated a 50th anniversary in 2009. The owners have an affinity for vintage buses, and have a handful of them in their own collection that have been fully restored. At least one of the company's old buses is also operated by the Minnesota Transportation Museum. Stan Holter runs the MTM's classic bus division while also working as general manager for Richfield Bus. (en)
