Description
This map of southern California covers a broad territory between San Fernando and San Bernardino and includes Los Angeles, Santa Monica, and much of Orange County. The railroad lines of the Pacific Electric and the Southern Pacific, plus those jointly operated, are shown according to the legend below the title. Though it formerly comprised one of the largest electrified inter-urban passenger networks in the United States, the Pacific Electric Railway had shifted almost entirely to freight operations by the time of publication.
According to a note in the lower right margin, the colors reflect the territories of various district freight agents as of June, 1962; each listed respectively within their territory. Printed in August of 1956.
