Thanks for the clarification
Wig Wag and
Ed Workman. (on the abrupt end of streetcar tracks)
I've been trying to find another photograph that shows tracks ending in the same manner, but I haven't had any luck yet.
I also thought there must be a photograph somewhere that shows a P.E. or LaRy streetcar that has accidentally over-run the end of the track.
-but again, I haven't had much luck finding any such photograph.
(and I'm not talking about that iconic photo of the train that overshot the end of the track at Union Station)

I found this interesting image in a very old file of mine.
I had it labeled:
"Complete Mystery Bridge, Los Angeles 1909" lol
old cd / file of mine
Does anyone know where this particular bridge is (was?) located....and where the houses were located that you see in the distance?
(and it appears the photographer was standing on yet another bridge!)
Here's a detail & enlargement.
Is that a person in a white shirt bending over by that first streetlight? (from this angle, it looks like the bridge isn't paved yet)
(perhaps we've seen this image previously on NLA, but I wasn't able to find it)
