Historic streetcar (Pacific Electric No. 1061) near the Embarcadero in San Francisco, with the Transamerica Pyramid and Coit Tower in the background.
The F Market & Wharves line is one of several light rail lines in San Francisco. Unlike most other lines in the system, the F line runs as a heritage streetcar service, using exclusively historic equipment both from San Francisco's retired fleet as well as from cities around the world. While the F line is operated by the San Francisco Municipal Railway (Muni), its operation is supported by Market Street Railway, a nonprofit organization of streetcar enthusiasts which raises funds and helps to restore vintage streetcars. Despite its heritage status, the F Market & Wharves line is an integral part of Muni's intermodal urban transport network, operating at frequent intervals for 20 hours a day, seven days a week. It carries local commuters and tourists alike. *** Description sourced from Wikipedia
