1008 in El Sereno
Charles D. Savage Photo, Donald Duke Collection
Pacific Electric interurbans (lead by no. 1008) roll toward Los Angeles through El Sereno in June of 1945. The image was used in Donald Duke’s 1958 book “PE” (page 20): Signal bridges and well ballasted track decorate the four track line at El Sereno as an Alhambra-San Gabriel train rolls on to Los Angeles.

Alhambra-San Gabriel-Temple City service was converted to bus in 1941. A close look at 1008’s dash sign indicates it’s working Pasadena via Short Line (sun angle indicates the train is inbound to LA).
This is a splendid black & white photo showing my favorite Pacific Electric equipment in their heyday. A bygone era.
