Description
As the Freedom Train, its red, white and blue shining brilliantly in the morning sunshine, came to a halt on Exposition Blvd., a crowd of more than 75,000 Angelenos roared out a tremendous cheer of welcome. It was the biggest crowd ever to greet the train. The speakers' stand is to the left.
