	Unless possibly it was at one time thought that there might be a loop
on the 51-line so the route was included in the signs.  As I mentioned,
this was sitting in Palm Garden on a spur track.  Could be a fantrip
car, but could be bonafide!

	I am reasonably sure that Dr.-Don->Mc<Galt is not into pubs  --  just
thought something historic might be mentioned after one of our own!

	That is  MORE  fascinating information.  I had just  *assumed*  that
the 33-line ran along West Carson to the Smithfield Bridge!

	How about scanning those 80--panels for us  --  all at once please  -- 
not one at a time!!  Just choking!!<GGGGG>

>> THANK  YOU  for your efforts in sharing this valuable information!!
