San Francisco PCC and More
Mar 24, 2010

Author  Bio
Tony Bennett, Alcatraz, Earthquakes, oh and trolleys. I didn't believe it until I saw it. Watch it's true.

Title:San Francisco PCC and More
LSOL.com Rating
Length1:43Release Date02/17/2007
OverviewThis one is fun to watch. A collection of different modes of transportation; PPC's running with modern articulated buses and cable cars. A little bit of history turned lose in the city by the bay. While the Cable Cars may rule the world there, there is no denying the special beauty of these trolleys.

Tony Bennett may have left his heart in San Francisco, but I left my car. Cheaper than towing it back to LA. Ah misspent youth.

San Fran Trolleys
Its great to step back in time and revisit those quiet nonpolutent PCC cars. We had a wonderful trolly system in the Twin Cities but like so many other cities we opted for busses. Now they're spending multimillions to install lite rail lines to do what the trollys did for over a century. I guess our city planners believed we had an inexhastable sourse of fuel.

Trollies
ED,

The fuel source they think we have is in our wallets.
