The 9209 is, today, out at OERM in Perris, California.
It is shown here at South Park Shops in the 1950s.
The fellow in the cab is definitely not the Motorman, but probably a friend of the photographer. If he could be recognized, we might learn who the unknown photographer is.

Can I purchase a hard copy of this image as I am building an “O” gauge model of this type of LARY “power car”. Are there other well detailed photos or plands? Thank you Walter Poppe.
