10 was a line operated by the Los Angeles Railway from 1932 to 1946. At the time of its closure, it ran from Grand Avenue and 39th Street to the intersection of Vernon and Arlington Avenues, by way of Grand Avenue, Santa Barbara Avenue, Dalton Avenue, and Vernon Avenue. Originally, the route ran all the way to the Edgeware line in Angelino Heights, but this was cut back 1 January 1943. Why the new terminus was at the seemingly arbitrary intersection of Grand and 39th is unknown.
