Tipton Road ( 1 of 2 )connecting LRN-26/US-99/60 headed south toward intersect with Bradshaw Road -The Spine of the Cove Communities- c.1935 (just designated HWY 111) originally Cocomaricopa Trail
I believe this photo was taken in the vicinity of the c.1935 Palm Springs S.P. Train station on Tipton and Bradshaw Rd (HWY 111). Looking south - Tipton Rd will jog to the left east along the S.P. tracks .5 miles then turn abruptly south again crossing the tracks beside the Palm Springs c1935 Depot and then intersecting with HWY 111 (former Bradshaw Rd)
Link to map of the time showing the Bradshaw Rd (future HWY 111) skirting the Santa Rosa cove communities and then past windy point at the base of the San Jacinto Range then joining up with LRN -26 at Whitewater.

In 1934, Route 111 was signed along the route from Jct. US 99 at Brawley to Jct. US 60 at Whitewater, via Mecca, Indio, and Palm Springs. This is LRN 187, defined in 1933.
