Along the No. 20 Line:  "This is one of the last trips we could have taken along the No. 20 line. It has existed, little changed, for exactly forty years. But next month, in July of 1949, it will be closed down and the tracks torn up. Not only the line, but the life along those streets will change, is already changing. So is mine, because next summer I'll be working on a coastal vessel. Within a decade, much of what is described here will be gone." (Rolf Knight, p.31) (Image: Vancouver Sun)
