00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:35.536

Okay. It was an accident during some

00:18:48.809 --> 00:18:52.197
kind of incident. You know will hold
it now. The great longhand about this

00:18:52.230 --> 00:18:57.796
courtesy one. I'm remembering the top
leg or some kind of some kind

00:18:57.829 --> 00:19:01.006
nonsense like that.

00:19:01.039 --> 00:19:05.630
Think of all these pictures that I
got. That one's about. My favorite.

00:19:06.740 --> 00:19:08.740
That's okay. Yeah,

00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:16.407
it used to like this. Yeah, They will
be fair and I used to work that line

00:19:16.440 --> 00:19:22.576
and you worked that night we signed up
for two and many times we if that's

00:19:22.609 --> 00:19:27.076
we always able to hit that switch
without stopping

00:19:27.109 --> 00:19:34.336
and you know, just just like that past
few years and never stop. We hate

00:19:34.369 --> 00:19:40.437
the we ain't to go there when I'm
sitting waiting on you wait on, well the

00:19:40.470 --> 00:19:47.607
downtown that was fast. The other hand
was easy to have oh

00:19:47.640 --> 00:19:55.407
2, 4 minutes to sit out on the end if
you want to kill time, you know, and

00:19:55.440 --> 00:20:00.286
the fella downtown he needs to get out
of there. You better sell them,

00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:08.319
hasn't any time at all. Yeah, actually
get load it is time to go. Were

00:20:09.039 --> 00:20:15.476
those the doors on the side behind,
behind where the motorman sat? They,

00:20:15.509 --> 00:20:18.447
when I near as I can remember, they
only used them on the mental world

00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:24.006
line. The one that opened on the wrong
side. Did they all those cars

00:20:24.039 --> 00:20:28.486
originally where they all set up to
use that. They had those were hooked

00:20:28.519 --> 00:20:34.867
up in the back. You use that for
discharging facts. But then every day you

00:20:34.900 --> 00:20:42.900
get the mirrors to win with him or
anything of that sort and so they uh

00:20:42.950 --> 00:20:49.907
they have little handles. Well that's
so long and you put that on a yeah,

00:20:49.940 --> 00:20:55.806
that was

00:20:55.839 --> 00:21:01.506
what that thing is located just up
there being an area route anyway.

00:21:01.539 --> 00:21:06.796
Uh, you could open that back door. I
mean let them out, you know from the

00:21:06.829 --> 00:21:10.627
start in front of you

00:21:10.660 --> 00:21:16.536
never use it a they wouldn't let you
we use them sometimes begin with when

00:21:16.569 --> 00:21:21.217
they something guy would be careless
and leave the handle on the other

00:21:21.250 --> 00:21:26.897
side, leave it when you king James and
someone could come along and play

00:21:26.930 --> 00:21:32.697
with it you know. Well you know what
the when they went on of course and

00:21:32.730 --> 00:21:40.730
actually the brakes went on and they
opened the door and that. Uh huh. So

00:21:40.849 --> 00:21:48.849
they they but now they were well the
superintendent. Yeah T. E. New cover

00:21:52.539 --> 00:22:00.046
A. He I understand was been a country
banker and as tight as bark on a

00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:08.079
tree. He I didn't like spending time
for anything And whatever they get 5

00:22:08.990 --> 00:22:12.506
to achieve as possible.

00:22:12.539 --> 00:22:17.306
He never could understand that you had
to spend money to get and he didn't

00:22:17.339 --> 00:22:21.996
like it because you had seats and the
operator to sit down and doesn't

00:22:22.029 --> 00:22:26.177
understand that it should be standing
up so they'd be alert to sit down

00:22:26.210 --> 00:22:32.806
and get who wouldn't be alert and
that's an old school way back there.

00:22:32.839 --> 00:22:40.839
What time they had there? Uh huh. We
had those old cars had go to our

00:22:41.230 --> 00:22:49.230
lives and who's having trouble with
the night inspector. That thing

00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:56.207
finally he got disgusted. So he just

00:22:56.240 --> 00:23:01.586
one car one night and the headlight
wouldn't work well just going just

00:23:01.619 --> 00:23:08.107
take it in been mega work. He says
there's four brand new ones down there.

00:23:08.140 --> 00:23:14.447
He won't put them out. Could have
written up and written it up so we

00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:18.427
report we sent that car. And so and so
what do you think about those two

00:23:18.460 --> 00:23:26.226
names on wages for doing nothing. See
Yeah. Uh that Bernie met so and he

00:23:26.259 --> 00:23:33.506
finally put those headlights out uhh
things like that.

00:23:33.539 --> 00:23:41.539
No, there was a good old man with
another thing that they never did. Uh If

00:23:42.109 --> 00:23:46.306
you if you they accused you of
something

00:23:46.339 --> 00:23:54.339
and that you didn't do you never
gotten apologize apology from.

00:23:54.740 --> 00:24:01.867
Yeah. And they seem to think that you
should be so grateful for the

00:24:01.900 --> 00:24:06.766
opportunity of working for if you do
anything. In fact in that old room

00:24:06.799 --> 00:24:11.897
book I think I think it's in this
there's a tremendous in that other you

00:24:11.930 --> 00:24:17.137
look there place in there, you're
supposed to report anything that you see

00:24:17.170 --> 00:24:23.897
any other a man doing you know that
you're supposed to be a stool pigeon

00:24:23.930 --> 00:24:31.930
along with it have this thing here uh
Mhm. Three of the rules in here.

00:24:35.470 --> 00:24:40.576
They make me laugh. Well times of
course that's kind of harsh. Yeah. Yeah.

00:24:40.609 --> 00:24:44.506
 Well yeah

00:24:44.539 --> 00:24:47.506
they

00:24:47.539 --> 00:24:53.367
Organized in 19 well sometimes longer
and they had a little and they went

00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:57.046
out on strike 1913,

00:24:57.079 --> 00:25:05.079
Well after that why? Uh huh. Hey bring
her up. But they had more guys

00:25:05.710 --> 00:25:13.207
knocking down uh when I went to work,
whether it was Sarah Levin,

00:25:13.240 --> 00:25:19.607
everybody knew they knocked down and
they had that old Omer system and

00:25:19.640 --> 00:25:25.707
what they do, you just favoring that
and of course you can be he need to

00:25:25.740 --> 00:25:29.726
each track is registered. So you know
how much knocked down and turn in

00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:33.887
because you Yeah they fired you if
they caught you keep tracking

00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:36.006
registered.

00:25:36.039 --> 00:25:41.907
I remember running up on the trips.
You know. Mhm.

00:25:41.940 --> 00:25:46.006
So I thought that was funny but I got
this I went to work you know

00:25:46.039 --> 00:25:53.996
everybody got a letter just going to
work telling you that uh you keep

00:25:54.029 --> 00:26:01.647
track of the register be dismissed and
easily. Yeah and keeping track of

00:26:01.680 --> 00:26:05.316
it. So

00:26:05.349 --> 00:26:11.657
then I figured out what big but before
I just want to go I have never

00:26:11.690 --> 00:26:16.806
never never no I never talked about
that wasn't my money and I had no

00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:23.907
business with you. And and their body

00:26:23.940 --> 00:26:31.940
Changing one guy he gets get hand and
he they wrote to me right after well

00:26:32.349 --> 00:26:36.776
said I'm

00:26:36.809 --> 00:26:40.897
they inform you there. They keep
telling between my services if they think

00:26:40.930 --> 00:26:46.766
they can get along without me. Yeah
they're very nice about So they thank

00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:51.536
you for bringing this car back. Okay.

00:26:51.569 --> 00:26:58.657
Okay. Yeah. Well how many times you
can before here's an old window. I'll

00:26:58.690 --> 00:27:04.796
take. Yeah. Oh that's that's the old
one. Well the ones we were just about

00:27:04.829 --> 00:27:12.829
the same thing. These are 1913 trains.
Yeah. No. Yeah you had a punch

00:27:13.099 --> 00:27:17.707
destination on those things. And the
movement. They think that's what they

00:27:17.740 --> 00:27:23.407
usually their wives and employees
going ahead of a wife on them and they

00:27:23.440 --> 00:27:29.907
pretty wide they say that's what they
had no one to work knowing that seat.

00:27:29.940 --> 00:27:35.076
Well there's always this is up here.
This was a temporary for this but

00:27:35.109 --> 00:27:43.109
this this one like look here. They got
deep hole on. Yeah. And

00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:50.137
the part that's kind of what I want to
work with for me the modify the

00:27:50.170 --> 00:27:53.306
movement

00:27:53.339 --> 00:27:59.506
building some things out of paper when
he got to the street editorial

00:27:59.539 --> 00:28:04.377
bottom then they ran a picture here.
It was kind of funny because that's

00:28:04.410 --> 00:28:08.907
not the speaker. That was everything

00:28:08.940 --> 00:28:13.306
double doors back.

00:28:13.339 --> 00:28:17.207
Yeah.

00:28:17.240 --> 00:28:22.226
But I guess it was hard to take
pictures. Are they getting released to a

00:28:22.259 --> 00:28:27.407
guy? They got a picture. He didn't
know what I didn't know what you want.

00:28:27.440 --> 00:28:33.316
Study the specifications on the new
card talks about their trucks and

00:28:33.349 --> 00:28:36.306
brakes and seat.

00:28:36.339 --> 00:28:42.147
No, suggested this. It's all in front.
Here's a newspaper picture. I'm

00:28:42.180 --> 00:28:46.157
going to get total newspaper and get
the original before that car was high

00:28:46.190 --> 00:28:50.506
and dry when they lowered the railroad
track.

00:28:50.539 --> 00:28:57.867
Come on on the Arab street got stuck
on the west end. No, went down to the

00:28:57.900 --> 00:29:03.917
west end of the torn up tracks because
the longer that couldn't have been

00:29:03.950 --> 00:29:08.746
well, they just, they probably relate
them, you know, across the track.

00:29:08.779 --> 00:29:12.647
That's what we do that when they
rebuild the track we have to do that a

00:29:12.680 --> 00:29:17.746
lot. There was just some old street
scenes of one sort or another in the

00:29:17.779 --> 00:29:21.306
1920s.

00:29:21.339 --> 00:29:29.339
Nothing like 19 data. No. Mhm. Best
food cart track there and let's see it

Thank you. Can. Yeah. And this is kind

00:30:16.180 --> 00:30:21.867

Let's heart the loop. This supposed

00:30:21.900 --> 00:30:27.286
this picture looking south. There was
a apparently the loop goes around

00:30:27.319 --> 00:30:31.536
like this and then there was a track
that went on down to the south of

00:30:31.569 --> 00:30:35.726
their joint went down the railroad
what they were used that before they

00:30:35.759 --> 00:30:40.667
use it at all. So they used this back
and forth. Hi my name brought to his

00:30:40.700 --> 00:30:47.526
cars. You know they they brought him
off. Did they have a switch that went

00:30:47.559 --> 00:30:53.207
on to the railroad track down at the
track? I guess so now they tell me

00:30:53.240 --> 00:30:59.326
that when they have the old grand A
line at they used to pull refrigerator

00:30:59.359 --> 00:31:05.907

sheds little sheds like that. They put
him up there and it's a very

00:31:15.200 --> 00:31:23.200
unloaded and then Uh huh we put him up
there. I don't want to what old

00:31:23.509 --> 00:31:25.806
carnies

00:31:25.839 --> 00:31:28.306
do that.

00:31:28.339 --> 00:31:33.266
Yeah. You pull them up to the
Orangewood district. Yeah I've been there

00:31:33.299 --> 00:31:38.207

and then they blow them up and care

00:31:38.240 --> 00:31:42.607
new girl put them back down. They put
him on a sighting somewhere. They

00:31:42.640 --> 00:31:46.726
had sightings. Yeah. No there was one
place they called stuff station. I

00:31:46.759 --> 00:31:51.197
don't know what that was. Yeah,

00:31:51.230 --> 00:31:54.546
it was more than that for months.
There was one at Orangewood where they

00:31:54.579 --> 00:31:58.417
passed right on the other side of
Central Avenue. Well I could never

00:31:58.450 --> 00:32:03.496
figure out where sites stout exciting
was That's more off towards Glendale

00:32:03.529 --> 00:32:10.006
and yes. Sam hard picked area because
he and whether that land but whether

00:32:10.039 --> 00:32:14.417

actually did they do some of this while

00:32:14.450 --> 00:32:18.647

No. When did they, when did they

00:32:18.680 --> 00:32:23.467

southern pacific track. I don't know

00:32:23.500 --> 00:32:27.066

what everybody wants. Thank you today.

00:32:45.740 --> 00:32:50.697
I don't know what their idea was. I
guess he figured that the white much

00:32:50.730 --> 00:32:58.137
business down there its length getting
pretty glad to and when I first

00:32:58.170 --> 00:33:00.607
went to work

00:33:00.640 --> 00:33:04.607

around.

00:33:04.640 --> 00:33:07.607

00:33:47.089 --> 00:33:53.207
still there with upon and it drained
at about the time I went to work

00:33:53.240 --> 00:33:58.447
career but through the alligators
there they scatter out there mm an

00:33:58.480 --> 00:34:02.107
alligator from the front. Yeah,
absolutely,

00:34:02.140 --> 00:34:10.140
but it's been the first swimming pool
really? Uh huh. I heard fellas tell

00:34:11.170 --> 00:34:18.206
about when the it worked out there all
this years and years for my time

00:34:18.239 --> 00:34:24.276
and they a fellow would sign around
that for the time maybe be working on

00:34:24.309 --> 00:34:31.856
cars and then David be part of kind of
pumping down there kid part mhm. We

00:34:31.889 --> 00:34:36.907
had pumping water for the swimming
pool

00:34:36.940 --> 00:34:42.617
and he said they'd like to do that
don't they? If you got down there was

00:34:42.650 --> 00:34:47.247
that there's people picnic, have
several times. It was the only party in

00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:54.486
town and yeah to the big invite your
to have lunch with him and instead he

00:34:54.519 --> 00:35:02.519
was it was pumping okay. Uh huh. I
think it was this kind of you know I

00:35:05.309 --> 00:35:09.677
kind of wondered about the loop down
there because there was always you

00:35:09.710 --> 00:35:14.967
know on just where the east end on
Washington street line went to single

00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:19.477
track, you know where it was a single
track on the wrong side of the

00:35:19.510 --> 00:35:25.617
street there for the last block. Well
it went from 15th Street 17 well

00:35:25.650 --> 00:35:30.486
right here on 15th because a Chinese
grocery store. Yeah and lead you

00:35:30.519 --> 00:35:36.617
right and in the concrete there is a
track turnout heading off for that

00:35:36.650 --> 00:35:41.637
loop which is in the same kind of
concrete that they concrete everything

00:35:41.670 --> 00:35:45.666
else and when they rebuilt the line
and I always I could never figure out

00:35:45.699 --> 00:35:50.577
why they left that little stub there.
If they tore it up when they rebuild

00:35:50.610 --> 00:35:54.037
it why would they leave that little
switch and that stuff going on in this

00:35:54.070 --> 00:36:00.657
drink? Didn't make any kind of sense
headed down 15th ST. Yeah. Yeah I

00:36:00.690 --> 00:36:07.807
remember that but I don't know he was
just stop there. It never connected

00:36:07.840 --> 00:36:14.416
with the other. We're just too
stubborn. Yes I do have never seen that.

00:36:14.449 --> 00:36:18.006
You can still see it there right now.
It's one of the few things it's

00:36:18.039 --> 00:36:24.456
still uncovered. Mhm. The what when
the what did they do when they got to

00:36:24.489 --> 00:36:28.467
the when they still had the Hollywood
line for a while after they rebuilt

00:36:28.500 --> 00:36:34.197
the rest of it. Didn't

00:36:34.230 --> 00:36:41.396
I don't want to remember. Yeah. Indeed
I guess they pull that off. Wait

00:36:41.429 --> 00:36:44.267
What did you do? What would you do?
You just run down to where you were

00:36:44.300 --> 00:36:48.086
supposed to stop? The 16th Street and
then stop. We're not 16. Oh yeah

00:36:48.119 --> 00:36:54.367
after they cut it out. Yeah they seem
to line the tracks. Are the tracks

00:36:54.400 --> 00:36:59.657
went back. There weren't any other
tracks. Oh no well let's see wait a

00:36:59.690 --> 00:37:06.637
minute here. No no they had a quick
death Hollywood down here because they

00:37:06.670 --> 00:37:10.986
never did bring the tracks on that
they had when they rebuild them they

00:37:11.019 --> 00:37:16.197
have to it down. Yeah

00:37:16.230 --> 00:37:18.997
rated.

00:37:19.030 --> 00:37:25.997
You know a bunch of politicians. I've
got no business operating.

00:37:26.030 --> 00:37:31.407
Mhm. Anything like that. But you see
what happened to that The property is

00:37:31.440 --> 00:37:36.637
worth millions and millions of dollars
now that we've got for $26,000, I

00:37:36.670 --> 00:37:44.227
think it's less. Uhh They took all
everything they wanted from it and give

00:37:44.260 --> 00:37:50.137
no credit, nothing in return. In other
words, they just bled to death. You

00:37:50.170 --> 00:37:57.727
never said anything. These politicians
with uhh get up there and have

00:37:57.760 --> 00:38:03.097
their rump sessions. You know, they I
mean they're closed session before

00:38:03.130 --> 00:38:11.130
they went into yeah. Oh, meeting and
they will decide what he's gonna do

00:38:12.440 --> 00:38:20.186
and if people wasn't hollering, if you
love me, that's all right, dude

00:38:20.219 --> 00:38:28.219
that you're not complaining. Well, uh
Well, like one time uh days there

00:38:30.980 --> 00:38:38.980
was 167 lb maybe on the papers.
There's a lot of money. All right. That

00:38:41.760 --> 00:38:48.197
somebody uh what it disappeared
anyway, they had uh short that much and

00:38:48.230 --> 00:38:53.626
they had to get it someplace. Well, We
were supposed to have 10 new

00:38:53.659 --> 00:38:57.086
busters,

00:38:57.119 --> 00:39:00.387
so there's worth waiting.

00:39:00.420 --> 00:39:06.427
And the fellow that delivered the
examples just do about these busses and

00:39:06.460 --> 00:39:12.677
of course he he was a great guy, you
know? So yes, he patted him on the

00:39:12.710 --> 00:39:18.856
back, like everything he was behaving
himself secure. But now just things

00:39:18.889 --> 00:39:24.586
like that that went on all the time.
And when they when they rebuilt that

00:39:24.619 --> 00:39:32.619
system, the thais they put in were
pine tie, they were not treated and

00:39:33.809 --> 00:39:38.597
that is where the, where they put in
pine pass most of it was, I mean a

00:39:38.630 --> 00:39:46.630
lot of it that down to town and up 3rd
Street to McDowell Road and uh huh

00:39:48.119 --> 00:39:55.117
Well Washington is all company. Yeah
and that was Oh they excavated about

00:39:55.150 --> 00:40:02.477
24" of being something like that. And
then and I put,

00:40:02.510 --> 00:40:07.436
I would put the crushed rock at the
bottom where they went a, I didn't

00:40:07.469 --> 00:40:12.017
sell him cut crushed rock was part of
it crushed rock and then silk and

00:40:12.050 --> 00:40:19.776
then more restaurants and Stephen tied
and then the

00:40:19.809 --> 00:40:27.097
um Williams rails were welded and then
there's about okay, somebody said

00:40:27.130 --> 00:40:34.977
my Angel Parkfield. Yeah. And they use
that there has a new process here,

00:40:35.010 --> 00:40:43.010
the hunt process is called, they spray
the top and sure. So previous to

00:40:43.460 --> 00:40:50.247
that time and paving while they took,
I think 21 days secure statement,

00:40:50.280 --> 00:40:52.677
they did

00:40:52.710 --> 00:41:00.710
uh, put dirt, make pans borders, you
know, sections until that's full of

00:41:01.760 --> 00:41:05.756
water. It's still full of water for. I
don't know how long they take it

00:41:05.789 --> 00:41:10.177
out and gradually hey

00:41:10.210 --> 00:41:14.486
Remove it after 21 days when they
start using, I don't know how long were

00:41:14.519 --> 00:41:19.206
you people are saying all this can't
do that. You can't do it. Everyone

00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:24.467
that tell you some of the hardest.
Yeah. Matter of fact, if you dig it up

00:41:24.500 --> 00:41:27.276
right now you could probably run
trolley cars on it again. Well they

00:41:27.309 --> 00:41:32.606
claimed when they got through with it,
after you finished it by uh there

00:41:32.639 --> 00:41:38.486
was awesome transit magazine had
pictures of that. What was the

00:41:38.519 --> 00:41:46.519
advertising process? Yeah. And it said
that it was it will stand will

00:41:48.510 --> 00:41:56.097
cambodians. Right? It was from how
about how they'll picture? Doesn't they

00:41:56.130 --> 00:42:00.267
had all kinds of little slogans. I
remember in the windows of those cars.

00:42:00.300 --> 00:42:04.876
Remember one of them was favored
yourself by a street car. And they had

00:42:04.909 --> 00:42:09.597
one that was right a mile and smiled a
while. I can't remember the rest of

00:42:09.630 --> 00:42:15.166
you remember any of them? No, no, no.
There's one with Reid and relax and

00:42:15.199 --> 00:42:21.267
ride a mile and smile a while, favor
yourself go by streetcar

00:42:21.300 --> 00:42:27.157
and they were a green background and
kind of gold gold riding gold letters

00:42:27.190 --> 00:42:35.190
that they were wrong. A part of the
operator's window, sadly they had the

00:42:35.320 --> 00:42:42.657
first when you were just plain glass,
you know. Well that some men uh but

00:42:42.690 --> 00:42:48.697
please therefore the side that might
have been all right back east enough.

00:42:48.730 --> 00:42:56.730
Yeah, correct, ain't it? Mhm. Just put
in slip this on. That's really you

00:43:00.099 --> 00:43:08.099
okay if you want to take these, will
you tell you what I'd like I say what

00:43:08.289 --> 00:43:12.427
I'd like to do. I'd like to be able to
make some copies of those pictures

00:43:12.460 --> 00:43:18.367
of those streetcars. Well, I think I
want it back. I would take a lot for

00:43:18.400 --> 00:43:22.017
to this predictor of this book. Has
this thing here in the spirit passed

00:43:22.050 --> 00:43:27.776
down values? Well no I mean like it
would probably take me about a week or

00:43:27.809 --> 00:43:33.057
maybe two weeks to get those pictures
what they do they they have to take

00:43:33.090 --> 00:43:37.247
a picture if you don't you don't have
a negative you take it to the shop

00:43:37.280 --> 00:43:42.287
and they take a picture of the
picture. You don't have to

00:43:42.320 --> 00:43:47.566
but if you take the ones in the big
book.

00:43:47.599 --> 00:43:55.599

of there. Well, they just dropped down
to the floor. You can put a fish

00:47:00.449 --> 00:47:05.697
hook down there and picked it up.
That's kind of how I, what I thought

00:47:05.730 --> 00:47:10.706
about it read about it doesn't take
much. They had an iron poker thing

00:47:10.739 --> 00:47:16.247

00:47:49.780 --> 00:47:55.276
There are very few pictures around,

demonstrations like they, the fresh
brain, you know? Yeah. Like that. This

00:49:22.030 --> 00:49:24.336
is a

00:49:24.369 --> 00:49:27.776
product planning. Something like
that's a big one. That's a lot of

00:49:27.809 --> 00:49:35.537
horsepower in those days materially
and uh huh. Well,

00:49:35.570 --> 00:49:41.637
mhm They were big horses, you know
what I mean, yep,

00:49:41.670 --> 00:49:49.670
that's really my power. These, you
have to have a truck set there

00:49:51.369 --> 00:49:54.217
now. What I'll do is I'll bring these
back in a couple of weeks because it

00:49:54.250 --> 00:49:58.936
takes about a week to make them up and

00:49:58.969 --> 00:50:02.526
I'll get some of the ones that look
better and look pretty good while I'll

00:50:02.559 --> 00:50:10.320

Did you want to? Yeah. I'd like I'd like to you know, I'd really like to

00:50:14.719 --> 00:50:19.106
look at that. I'd like to very
carefully. I'd like to have had several

00:50:19.139 --> 00:50:25.387
that stuff. The more books there but I
didn't want to be a hog uh after

00:50:25.420 --> 00:50:32.469
