In 1896, the Abbey Land and Improvement Company established Mount Olivet Cemetery. During that year, the company also obtained a franchise from the County of San Mateo to run a street car line from the tracks of the "40 Line" to the office building at the entrance of the cemetery. The Mount Olivet Local Line, as it was called, serviced visitors to the cemetery until 1926 when the "40 Line" was relocated.
