Lilian Express, Inc., was a bus company based in Dipolog City in the Philippines. It served bus routes to the Zamboanga Peninsula.
Its buses and route network were merged with Rural Transit and Bachelor Express after it was bought out completely by the Yanson Group of Companies in 2005.
Lilian Express' name was taken from the family matriarch Lillian Opulentisima-Young. It started its business operation in Dipolog City in the early 1960s and eventually branched to Ozamiz, Pagadian and Zamboanga City.
In 1995, it expanded bus transport service to the cities of Davao, Butuan, Cagayan de Oro, Iligan, Pagadian, and in the province of Bukidnon. Its sister company Mary May Express, runs Dipolog to Zamboanga City routes.
In March 5, 2005, the whole route network was bought out completely in by Yanson Group of Bus Companies, a Bacolod City based bus conglomerate, commencing from its Davao, Agusan, and Bukidnon route networks, then followed by Cagayan de Oro and Dipolog routes.
