LARY Trollwy #1201 - Los Angeles Rwy

         

Los Angeles Railway (LARy) trolley #1201 is a historic 1921 Class H-4 streetcar preserved and operated by the Southern California Railway Museum (formerly Orange Empire Railway Museum) in Perris, California. Built by St. Louis Car Company in 1921, #1201 was part of the first all-steel "Type H" class, which was considered the safest on the LARy system at the time. As required by Los Angeles municipal safety regulations, it was equipped with a front-mounted safety fender designed to scoop up pedestrians, a standard feature for streetcars in that era. It was restored to its 1930s appearance, which includes the characteristic safety fender (or pilot) used on "Yellow Cars" of that era. In 2013, the trolley was still in working condition and would take museum visitors on a ride around the museum property.
