The PE photo of 'Blimp' 314 on the San Pedro Line is located eastbound on 9th Street and Central Avenue south of downtown LA.
It is about to join onto the Fabulous For Tracks line heading south to the LA Harbor area.
The LATL Trolley Bus was north bound headed for downtown Los Angeles.

Thanks, Larry, for the memory from Andy Goddard's camera work.
