Description
Shows rail lines of the railways with service in the Los Angeles to Redondo area, including Southern Pacific Railway and the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe. Shows Hill St. Tunnel, Temple St. Line, Fourth St. Tunnel, Sixth St. Line, Bimini Baths line and Pico St. Line as well as proposed franchise lines in red. This appears to be a later state of a map without the additional lines and proposed franchises. Covers the city of Los Angeles with Hollywood and the Santa Monica Mountains to the north; Santa Monica and the coast, including Playa del Rey, Manhattan, Hermosa and Redondo and Gardena to the southeast. Main Street, Los Angeles, serves as the eastern border of the map. Scale not given. Coordinates not present on map, approximated from Google maps. Relief given in hachures. Produced in the period 1903 to 1910 when all of the railways listed were in operation. Provenance unknown, in library as of 2017. Appears to have come from the office of one of Henry E. Huntington's railway companies.
