Evelyn Scott Cherry: Driving with the best of ‘em By Jeanne Anderson Neat, well-marked photo albums full of black and white memories - Evelyn Scott Cherry of Victor has seen much in her 88 years. The stories flow out as she turns the pages. First day of school - a little girl in pig-tailed braids and high-topped boots carrying a lunch pail; a sleigh covered with canvas called a gandy wagon; men - “That’s my dad there - “ hauling a giant metal gas tank down Teton Pass; the log cabin where snow had to be dug away from the windows after nearly every storm. The Scott place at the top of Teton Pass included a big house and old shed, and a barn for both heavy freight horses and the faster gandy horses, she remembers. “My dad ran freight an mail. Mother had the bus line from Victor to Jackson to Moran. They kept a hotel in Wilson, but lived at the top of the pass in the winter.” Cherry’s father, Harry Scott, always wore a ten-gallon hat, and he insisted his teams be matched sets.

She started to drive, just to help her mother once in a while, she notes. But hauling passengers became second nature for Cherry, who eventually drove buses out of Teton Valley for both Teton Transportation (later Stage Lines) and Glitette buss company. By the age of 41, she’d been driving for a dozen years without a single wreck. That year, the Post Register carried her photo with the overline, “Working in a man’s world.” The yellowed clipping hangs framed in her house. She drove large sedan-type vehicles called “stretch jobs” made by Ford which had two extra seats between the front an back doors with a rack on the top for luggage. One is pictured above, heading down the Jackson side of Teton Pass. Later, she became adept at maneuvering bigger “push type” busses with the motor in the back. The buses rand to Idaho Falls every day, including Sundays. “Yep, I worked virtually my whole life,” Cherry admitted with.....
