Here we have a line of cars heading north on the Hollywood Freeway through Cahuenga Pass near the Barham exit in Burbank. But on closer inspection, we can see the cars on the two left lanes are all Woody wagons. So I’m guessing maybe it’s some sort of Woody wagon enthusiasts club taking their pride-and-joys on parade? Or going to a meet with other Woodies? This photo is circa 1942.
** UPDATE ** – Byron B says: “Found on the internet: “The ‘Station Wagon Brigade’ was formed in response to fears of an anticipated Japanese invasion…. [Its purpose was] to evacuate families and individuals without personal transportation.””
This is how that same stretch of freeway looked in August 2022. The only thing that appears to have changed is the cars.
The other change is that the northbound off ramp (between the two high walls) is closed and has been closed for decades. The southbound on ramp, which is out of the photo, has been likewise closed.
