Notes:
Pacific Electric 530-539 series trolley car, obtained 1918 from Fresno Traction Company (where they’d run on the Peninsular Railway in San Jose), built by St. Louis Car Company. Part of a massive production order, this car was unusual in having an enclosed smoking section. Sold off in 1935 and moved here in 1943 originally to be a bar, but when locals opposed that was made into a restaurant instead.
