Established around the turn of the century with a stage operation serving the mill workers from Westwood to Susanville, Mineral and Red Bluff. Mt. Lassen Motor Transit rapidly expanded with routes in Oregon and Nevada as well as Northern California. Following World War II the bus line saw a marked decrease in service and eventually reverted to one bus route. In 1952 the office officially moved from Susanville to Red Bluff where they are still in operation today.

The tiny bus line from Red Bluff to Susanville was purchased in 1972 by Steve and Kathleen Jones. In 1980 we bought our first motor-coach and started the tour and charter service which now serves the Redding/Red Bluff/Chico and surrounding areas. (Yes, the little mail/stage still operates daily from Red Bluff to Susanville - the oldest continuing operating passenger stage in California - and makes a great little one day getaway through the mountains to Susanville and back.)
