View of a Pacific Electric bus fleet parked in a lot located on Macy Street. Caption explains that the "million dollar" bus lineup sits idle at midday but that all buses are in use during peak traffic hours. At the time this photograph was taken, the era of the streetcar was coming to a close as Pacific Electric introduced an increasing number of buses while dismantling the extensive streetcar system bit by bit. Photo dated: March 7, 1950.
