Re: What I Miss About Chicago

Yes, the 1 was absorbed into the 217 (at least on Hollywood Blvd). It was decided that it didn't need to travel all the way to downtown LA via Sunset Blvd, since you had the 2/3 and 4 on the same route, and of course, the Red B line serving downtown LA from Hollywood, albeit on a different route. I will have been gone from Southern California 24 years on July 4th, and while many of the core routes are pretty much the same, there are so many I never heard of.

Re: the Bob Crane/6220 pic, obviously a publicity photo. In real life, the old 26 (East 1st - West Pico Blvd, successor to the P streetcar route) would have not shown a destination of "LOS ANGELES", i.e. downtown LA, as all runs were through-routed the downtown area, at least when I was out there.
