Hello San Francisco transit fans. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then our Fisherman’s Wharf by Milan Tram poster could serve as my introduction to you. I cracked crab at Tarantino’s restaurant for three summers during high school, and had a front row seat for the opening of the F-Line wharf extension and its beautiful streetcars.
Facing Jefferson Street from the crab stand, I could not avoid the streaks of color flashing in front of my view shed. I also could not avoid the shrieks of horror as unsuspecting tourists were accosted by the Bushman, also accurately portrayed in the poster hanging in my office. The shrieking got old, the streetcars did not. That is why I became active in Market Street Railway.
