Points of Interest  

This was Los Angeles first subway (Okay, Pacific Electric had a short subway as well), The Blue Line has one subway station at 7th and Flower. Here is connects with the Red Line. It then passes Staples Center, it does a little bit of street running, then enters the former Pacific Electric Long Beach Line right-of-way for the journey to the Ocean.
