As a "bonus" we have prepared a 16-page view of what is left of the former Red Car Empire at the beginning of 1976. Contrast the 1914 system (map on page 98) to the 1976 trackage (map on page 99). The original 10 parts of Special 16, Lines of Pacific Electric, were published over a number of years. We wish to recognize the original persons who participated. Editor & Publisher; - Ira L.
