My first thought when seeing this photo was “And I used to think my morning commute on the 405 Freeway was bad.” But then I noticed the joyful looks on the faces on these Angelenos as they packed the B Line streetcar. Turns out, they were celebrating the end of WWII in September 1945. No wonder they were so happy! And what a ride through the streets of LA (the B Line went to City Terrace 4 miles due east of downtown) they must have witnessed.
