Postcard: Los Angeles railcar 1544 near Travel Town (1970)Vanishing Vista
Pacific Electric #1544 is on display at Travel Town in Los Angeles. Named the "Electra" when it was built in 1902 in Sausalito, California, by the North Shore Railroad (B/N 3) for local freight work on the dual-gauge electrified trackage out of Sausalito. It later proved unsatisfactory and was leased in 1906 to the San Francisco Debris Commission to aid in the cleanup after the earthquake. It then went to the United Railways in San Francisco and later to the Southern Pacific as Central Pacific #201. Finally, in 1917, it was transferred to the Pacific Electric as #1544 and remained in service until its retirement.
