Lots of forwarder and dray companies along King St in the 50s-60s across from the coach yard.Before SP built a bigger ramp in Mission Bay, 373/374 loaded circus style in the middle of King St. SP had warehouses along King until they burned in the early sixties in one of SF's bigger fires.sLTL and more forwarders along 3rd and 16th below Mission Bay.

In the morning when 98 was set into Track 9, 4th st would be blocked until departure. Same at night for 99 until the train was picked up and wyed.
