Los Angeles Railway
1291 on Route U at 1st Street & Bimini Place
Same fantrip as the previous picture.  The car is turning into a loop.  The location was generally known as 1st and Vermont, a short turn loop for the V line in later years.  The U line never went within miles of this location.  Bimini Place just short of 1st St. was where the H line right-of-way ended.  The H line had passed by Bimini Baths, a wonderful plunge and natatorium in the manner of Sutro's in The City.  That location is two block to the left of the photo.  There was a decent hot dog stand built within this loop, the 1st St. trackage of which was constructed after the H line was abandoned.
