Wellston Loop was part of my daily life from birth until I left St. Louis in 1964. Numerous streetcar and bus lines looped there; the Hodiamont and City Limits streetcars ran on private right-of-way at the west edge. My father was a streetcar driver! St. Charles line which went all the way to St. Charles looped there, too. A Katz Drug Store, formerly Nugent's Department Store, anchored the loop and Wellston bustled block after block with every kind of business imaginable, theaters, eateries.
