History
[edit]The company started out in 1923 when Arnt Krokum started Krokum Bilruter. The company started with one bus, then added a second in 1924. In 1945 the company started a bus service for Braathens S.A.F.E. between Trondheim and Lade Airport and Hommelvik Seaplane Base. In 1948 the company was converted to a limited company and four years later the company started a bus service to Trondheim Airport, Værnes on contract with Scandinavian Airlines System. The company started with charter trips in the 1950s, and as of 2006 still had the same three main activities and only one dominant owner.[1][2]
In 2010 Klæburuten was sold to Nettbuss Trøndelag.[3]
