Mark it down in ink. Muni’s annual Heritage Weekend has now been confirmed for September 9-10, 2017.
This year marks the centennial of Muni as a bus operator, and we will be working with Muni to showcase several of its historic buses, in addition to the usual array of special vintage streetcars and cable cars that will operate that weekend.
Operating hours will be 10 a.m. until about 5 p.m. The action will be centered again around our San Francisco Railway Museum, across from the Ferry Building, where our exhibit on the transition from streetcars to buses in San Francisco will take center stage. More details will be forthcoming as they develop, but our Market Street Railway members can count on some special events, including a reception and charter for our more generous members and donors on Thursday evening, September 7, and special riding opportunities for all our members outside the regular weekend operation. Again, details to come on this.
Thanks to all our members and friends for their patience in waiting for the dates to be finalized. Other city agencies besides Muni are involved, so thanks to SFMTA’s Communications group for persisting in getting these dates arranged.
Those planning to visit from far away still have time to lock in the lowest air fares! We hope to see you September 9-10!
Really looking forward, kids. Where’s the Facebook event page for this? 🙂
