Looking at the schedule of the route, I can see why they miss Fernley. From Fallon they go to Carson City (presumably on US-50) before going on to Reno. That cuts off Fernley.
Now that Amazon is closing the Fernley distribution center and moving it to Reno, there's even less reason for the bus to stop there.
Even though Fernley is larger than Fallon, it's sufficiently close to Sparks that the various common carriers (Greyhound and Trailways) apparently don't consider it worth serving. Maybe the Tesla Gigafactory, which is expected to lead to more people living in Fernley, will lead to some movement on this issue. I suppose I should go to some city council meetings and ask about what the city is doing to get some sort of way to get from Fernley to Reno/Sparks other than driving or paying the local taxi $100 each way to do so.
