Transportation Manufacturing Corporation (TMC) was a bus manufacturer based in Roswell, New Mexico.
The company was formed in 1974 by Greyhound Bus Lines to manufacture Motor Coach Industries vehicles. In 1987, General Motors decided to close its bus division and sold the manufacturing rights of the GMC RTS to Greyhound Bus Lines for assembly by TMC. TMC sold its Classic bus license to NovaBus in 1991 and spun off in 1993 as Motor Coach Industries.
In 1994 MCI sold the TMC plant to NovaBus, who closed it in 2003. The Roswell, New Mexico plant was reopened later under the name Millennium Transit Services LLC.
