Nostalgia & History > Key System - Photo by Don SimsDate: 01/16/17 15:15 Key System - Photo by Don Sims Author: Phantom_of_Cajon The photo was taken as part of a photo story for Trains circa September of 1954. Dad doesn't recall the exact location but thinks it is the Shattuck and 41St station in Oakland. He is hoping that someone may be able to be more precise.

The Bridge Railway including that "C" Line, survived for about 10 more years after the streetcar line was abandoned.
