Pacific Electric Red Car
in Long Beach
Red Car eastbound on Ocean Ave. in downtown
Long Beach.
Originally built in 1913 by Pullman
and fondly known as Blimps due to their large size, this class
of cars first came to the PE during WWII to start a special service
to the shipyards to support war time work. They closed out service
on the last running line, the Long Beach line, in 1961 most of
which has been reborn into the Metro Blue Line.
The Los Angeles Harbor Department is resurrecting
a mile and a half long segment
of the old Pacific Electric line in early 2001, and will have
two replica Red Cars.
