Thanks for clarifying OPRRMS. And thanks for mentioning the streetrunning on Lincoln. Somehow while perusing the aerials I missed the sweeping ROW alley running from Lincoln up to the compass west end of the ABL yard that is dead give away of old ROW.
Lincoln looks like the tracks might have been in dead middle of street? Another interesting area in the 1965 aerial photograph set at UCSB's Framefinder site is the Stonehurst branch with tracks leaving that automobile plat on 105th and then going up to Bancroft and running down Bancroft to what I read was a Chevy Plant at site of Eastmont Mall today. 1965 the tracks and a large yard are still there but the plant is in process of demolition.
