{"product_id":"pacific-electric-red-cars-9781531628581","title":"Pacific Electric Red Cars","description":"Of the rail lines created at the turn of the 20th century, in order to build interurban links through Southern California communities around metropolitan Los Angeles, the Pacific Electric grew to be the most prominent of all. The Pacific Electric Railway is synonymous with Henry Edwards Huntington, the capitalist with many decades of railroad experience, who formed the \"P. E.\" and expanded it as principal owner for nearly its first decade. Huntington sold his PE holdings to the giant Southern Pacific Railroad in 1910, and the following year the SP absorbed nearly every electric line in the fourcounty area around Los Angeles in the \"Great Merger\" into a \"new\" Pacific Electric. Founded in 1901 and terminated in 1965, Pacific Electric was known as the \"World's Great Interurban.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/07\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531628581\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d","brand":"Jim Walker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36656929996956,"sku":"9781531628581","price":27.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_08792a54-00e7-4f0f-a285-f22f7ee6bfef.jpg?v=1603889346","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/pacific-electric-red-cars-9781531628581","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
