San Francisco is home to the largest working collection of vintage
streetcars in the world. One of the city's most recognizable and
beloved attractions, the streetcar line which runs through the
heart of the city serves more than 20,000 riders a day. San
Francisco's Market Street Railway continues to collect vintage cars
from all over the world and to lovingly restore them to service as
part of this rolling museum that pays tribute to cities who have
operated streetcar lines in the past and present. This delightful
book showcases this historic fleet with more than 120 pages of
beautiful color photos of currently restored and active streetcars.
Each car is introduced with a paragraph describing its history. The
book also explores the history of the streetcar as urban transit,
both nationally and within San Francisco, and also tells the story
of how this amazing "Museum in Motion" came to exist as one of San
Francisco's most famous attractions.
