Synopsis "On Track: A Field Guide to san Francisco’S Historic Streetcars and Cable Cars"
San Francisco just wouldn't be the same without its colorful streetcars and cable cars. These vintage forms of public transit are not only practical ways to explore the City--they're amusement rides that jangle through a mix of historic buildings and vibrant new development, filling your ears with the sound of cables clicking as steel wheels rumble under your feet. At the same time, they're a fleet of unique traveling museums. This field guide from the Market Street Railway tells the remarkable stories of each of San Francisco's cable cars and streetcars. Detailed illustrations and specs accompany the description of each vehicle. There's even a trainspotter's checklist at the back of the guide for keeping track of the fleet. On Track also shows riders how to get the most enjoyment out of this unique transportation system. In addition to giving tips for avoiding long waits in line and choosing the best seats, it provides directions for several ride-and-walk tours that cover the City's "greatest hits" as well as sites frequented primarily by longtime residents. Part travel guide, part civic and engineering history, this lively book will provide a way for tourists and locals alike to get "on track."
