The large text says "Andrew Jergens Co". The 1942 CD lists them at 99 W Verdugo Avenue in
Burbank. The street is now fenced off from the railroad at this point, but I can't see any of the
buildings from the picture above.

...If we take the shadows into consideration this is an early morning photograph. Consulting my
March, 1941 SP timetable I would offer that the train on the right is number 99, the northbound
Coast Daylight which had just departed Glendale Station at 8:35 am., while the southbound train
is number 76, the Lark, scheduled to stop at Glendale at 8:42 am. The track at the Verdugo
crossing is on a long gentle curve to the northeast. At this time there were many crossings
between the north end of SP's Taylor Yard and Burbank Junction where the Coast and San
Joaquin routes diverged, and these types of incidents were quite common.
