In Focus: Humble Beginnings For The Sea Beach Line
This July 17, 1914 photo showcases workers lifting sandbags, operating a cement mixer and examining the newly laid tracks. during the construction of the Sea Beach line. The title, “Looking West from 18th Ave. Showing Progress of Construction Work” even gives the viewer the location where the photographer stood.
Amazing how ingenuity and hard work got the job done back then, ahem ahem. Sea Beach line repairs anyone?
