Check out the amazing footage of Culver City in this instructional movie Pacific Electric made for its conductors in 1914.

The sequence from 1:00 to 1:35 was filmed at the corner of Venice and Sepulveda. Look all those trees!

A little less amazing but still worth watching is the sequence from 3:50 to 4:15. That's a view of 1914 Culver City, facing east.

Seems to be an honest-to-god train -- where the 405 is currently? More investigation needed!

So is that a street car or just a train?
