About Pacific Electric Buses
The Pacific Electric Railway was an early operator of motor buses supplementing its vast Southern California interurban rail system. Feeder service began in the San Bernardino area in 1917; longer lines were soon added and the competing suburban and interurban lines of the rival Motor Transit Co. were acquired in 1930. Pacific Electric sold its motorized Pasadena and Glendale local lines in 1941 with 68 buses. When Pacific Electric was sold to Metropolitan Coach Lines in 1953 the fleet totaled 695 buses.
