3060 on the V line at Monroe and New Hampshire. This picture is post 1955, since before that time PCCs were not assigned to the V line.
It was after the May, 1955, abandonments that rail service reductions were substantial enough to allow for PCC-only operation of the remaining lines.
Note that sign on the front of the car: Take This Car to Bullocks Downtown.
This sign graced the PCCs for years (in fact, it is the only front advertising sign I really remember on the PCCs), but the V line was the only remaining line that did not go downtown.
It was the heaviest crosstown line, bus or rail, on the entire system.
