I had posted this image of the Pacific Electric/Southern Pacific station in Gardena a few days back and some folks here helped connect the dots and confirmed that it was on Vermont Avenue.
I realized that I already had this image of a Red Car headed south on Vermont and the end of the same station can be seen in it:

Here is roughly the same view from GSV today. You can see that there are still railroad tracks and crossings in the area. The site where the station stood is now a church parking lot.
And the frame from the Texaco sign seen in the Red Car photo is still with us today:

Also the lettering seen on the wall between the Red Car and the station turns out to be "Studebaker" and I found a directory of old dealerships that shows what once stood on Vermont Avenue:
