I noticed that there was an electric carmarked Los Angeles to San Diego BeacliRy. No. I, and that there were two trol-ley lines stretched above the tracks forquite a distance from San Diego City,en line to La Jolla, and I have no doubtthat in the near future the La Jolla linewill become an electric inter-urban railway. I was told that the road was built in1888, and was first known as the San. Diego, Old Town & Pacific Beach R. line then was built only to PacificBeach from San Diego City. Later on,after the line was extended to La Jolla, itbecame known as the San Diego, PacificBeach & La Jolla Railway; the La JollaLine up to a year or two back, when itbecame known as the present Los AngelesS: San Diego Beach Ry. It has been ru-mored that this railway will eventually be-come an electric railway, connecting with San Diego. I saw a pic-ture of the old New York & ManhattanBeach Railroad train in one of yourformer issues, and it put me in mind, verymuch, of this little beach railroad.
