On track in Fullerton
Today's photos come from the Launer Room at the Fullerton Public Library and show rail travel in Fullerton. The image above shows a Pacific Electric "Red Car" in 1937, and the image below shows the Fullerton Santa Fe station in 1955.
I must be going nuts. I thought I saw a post the other day (just after the Fullerton pic) about an old school, and a bean harvester. Did those two pics not appear, and then disappear? The first one was a very old photo in B&W, and the second was a color shot talking about the shrinking bean farms on O.C. . . . I think???
Sadly, I had to shut down comments (my favorite part of the blog) thanks to endless spam. Most of my posts are linked from my FB page, so feel free to comment there or to email me. If I can find a more secure way to do so, I will bring back normal commenting later.

Very cool!
ReplyDeleteWell you have made my day Chris. These pictures are absolutely fantastic. Much appreciated!
ReplyDeleteWhat the heck! Did you delete your last post? What happened to the bean farm?
