Sorry I was off by a block or so. There’s an old train post at 24th and VAN NESS, kiddos. Don’t get confused.

I think it might be the sole survivor, actually, since they took down the one in front of the Double Play recently.

There aren’t many survivors left, but that’s one of them.

I wonder though, how can you be certain the aforementioned cars are parked that way rather than in the act of being parked or driven away?

I love it. Love the knowledge that there used to be random decorative arches in the city too…. Can you imagine it today if there were trains running through the mission? wow.
