Rear
view of a flyer on Market St. as seen from the front of a streetcar;
the streetcar is probably a Peter Witt. The location must be between
Hayes and Haight since the trolleybus wires are independent from
the streetcar wires. After Haight St., the trolleybus wires move
to the centre of the street and the F streetcar shares one of
them. The trolleybus wires were installed in the event that bus
substitution becomes necessary. In the early period of the F line,
there not enough streetcars and trolleys would sometimes make
certain runs. The 40 foot Flyers used '8' on their rollsign, but
the articulated Flyers have 'F' on their rollsigns. To the best
of my knowledge, trolleys have not appeared on the F line in recent
times. Photo by Ken Josephson. Date unknown.

Marmon Herrington on 16th St. on the 22 Fillmore line waiting
for a PCC on Church St. on the J line to cross the street. Back
in the days when both Muni and the Market St. Railroad were operating,
there four sets of tracks from 22nd St. to Market St., one for
the #22 and the other for the J. The 22 is a trolleybus line today,
and the PCCs have disappeared from this part of Church St. Photo

MSR
Twin Coach 50, ex-Seattle 614, né 836 on Arguello at Geary
St. This coach belongs to the "Market Street Railroad"--a
museum group. #50 is painted similar to the original MRS colours.
The coach was on a fan trip but it never completed the trip as
it broke down. It has not run since. The rollsign, which is illegible,
is incorrect for the 33 Stanyan. The fan trip was celebrating
the opening of the extension of the 33 to California St. Courtesy

On 2 JUL 1940 Muni created
the R line, the date of this photograph. Overhead was strung, but a lawsuit
prevented the new line from using trolleys until 1941. In the meanwhile Muni
ran 4 White buses. The overhead for the new line can be seen in the picture.
This is probably one of the first pictures of Muni's entrance into the electric
trolleybus business. Courtesy SFMuniHistory. Photographer unknown.
