Taken on a dismal February morning, this photo captures an outbound train
as it briefly runs parallel to Fair Oaks Ave. in the southern part
of Pasadena. The
camera settings heighten the sensation of speed as the train passes
by.
The Pacific Electric came along Fair Oaks once upon a time, providing
one of two routes that connected Pasadena with Los Angeles. PE
also provided local service in the area, and it went far out into
the San Gabriel Valley -- reaching into, and well beyond, territory
that the Gold Line may serve at some future date. |
