RetroRide currently has a collection of authentic bus/motor coach timetables from the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transit Authority (predecessor to the RTD) from the period around 1959. This also includes the 36/37/38 rail lines (which are the former Pacific Electric Long Beach, San Pedro via Dominguez and Watts Local lines) as well as the former Los Angeles Railway/LATL streetcar lines J, P, R, S and V.
Sometime in 2018, will start loading these authentic schedules. (We have already completed but not yet published the rail lines) Like with 1979, we are looking for scans of any authentic schedules from this period.
Route numbers in bold are schedules we currently have. Those not in bold are ones we are looking for.
