Peerless
Stages was a Northern California bus "pioneer" system. At one time Peerless had
sole transportation rights between the Bay Area and Reno, Nevada. But Peerless abandoned
the long distance routes to concentrate on serving points between the Bay Area and Santa
Cruz, CA.
Here are a few photos from the "Peerless Album." Click on
