@evanlovett: And as Los Angeles continues to build and expand public transit, it’s worth remembering that not too long ago, L.A. wasn’t just car country, it was home to one of the most extensive electric railway networks in the world.

I’m Lynette Romero of @NBC Los Angeles and Today in L.A., here with my friend Evan, and today we’re talking about March 31, 1963 — the day the trolleys stopped in Los Angeles. (Both)) Let’s get into it! #lainaminute #losangeles #nbc4

Remember: All of the Trolley Systems that disappeared on the West Coast was facilitated by a company named National City Lines which was incorporated in San Diego by Oil, Bus, Automobile, & Tire Companies to buy & rip out the Public Transit systems. It was named after National City, a city that was wholly owned by the Santa Fe Railroad (Nee the California Southern Railway) when it was established…

San Pedro still has it built as history. Huntington Park Seville station is used by the line 102 and 251 go back then it was the Vermont line that ran from Hunter Park Seville all the way down to Hollywood Boulevard

Wow, I had no idea the trolley was still around when I was alive! I was born in 1962 and used to think that they were way before my time. (Of course I was too young to form any memories of them.)

I’d like to see you do a story on why the G bus line (Orange) is not an extension of the B rail line (Red) as was originally planned. It involved a corrupt politician and misplaced NIMBYism who represented part of the route in Sacramento.
