1e The Zakarpatskaya Oblast Auto Trust is located on Kupushanskaya Ulitsa in the
southeastern part of Uzhgorod, Since this is an Oblast trust there are regional
trusts functioning under its supervision. The chief of the trust is Lyunev (fnu),
The oblas trust has the following vehicles: one 2'-ton Studebaker truck, six
ZIS trucks, one Tatra truck, one Opel bus, one ZIS bus, and a four-door sedan
Opel Super automobile. The two buses are a mottled red color. They have been
painted other colors in the past, but these have now faded. In March 1948, an
roa+ was issued whereby the two buses'were to be painted one solid color. Both
b
h
uses
ave a 30 to 40 person capacity,
As of March 194, about ten drivers were employed by the trust, one.or two of whom
were reserve drivers who,were not assigned to specific vehicles. Most of the
drivers for the trust drive trucks which are used in transporting goods from one
enterprise to another. A s ravka is always issued for each trip and it states
exactly what job is to be done, how much material is to be trans
t
d
por
e
, etc.
Three drivers are assigned to drive the buses. Two of the drivers took turns
driving the Opel bus on the run between Uzhgorod and Mukachevo for three days
each week, while the other acted as a chauffeur for officials of the trust. The
third bus driver always drove the ZIS bus.
Both buses of the trust are used on the Uzhgorod-Mukachevo run. One bus always
has to be in Mukachevo by 0800 hours to leave for the first trip of the day to
Uzhgorod. The other bus has to be at the bus stop in Uzhgorod by 0730 hours
in order to leave for Mukachevo a half hour later. Since the bus t

ween
Uzhgorod and Mukachevo takes about an hour, there is a bus leaving each town hourly.
There are no stops between the towns. Tickets for the trip cost 15 rubles and
can not be purchased on the bus. They must be bought in a small shed-like ticket
office located at the bus stop in each town, The bus does not go into the center of
Mukachevo, Instead, it crosses the bridge on the outskirts and turns around in a
paved square just across the bridge where'the bus stop is located.

dependent upon the amount the driver knows about the engine of the vehicle
he operates. A first class driver must know 100 percent of the details about
an engine; the second class driver would know about 80 percent of that there

rubles monthly. The workers are paid only once a month; the bookkeepersgivee
