MUNI 1040
Description:
MUNI car #1040 rolls along the Embarcadero in San Francisco. No. 1040 is the very last of almost 5,000 PCC? streetcars manufactured in North America. It was delivered to Muni in 1952, completing an order of 25 PCCs from the venerable St. Louis Car Company. Of all the single-end PCCs in Munis current active fleet, it is the only one that has worked in San Francisco its entire life.

MUNI 1058
Description:
MUNI car #1058 rolls along the Embarcadero in San Francisco. This streetcar is painted to honor Chicago, which ran PCC streetcars from 1936 to 1958. Chicago had the largest PCC fleet ever purchased new by one city--683 cars. The first Chicago PCCs were nicknamed "Blue Geese" after their paint scheme, so it was natural that the cars delivered in green after the war would be dubbed "Green Hornets" after the then-popular radio serial.

MUNI 162
Description:
This streetcar represents the last days of Muni’s original streetcar fleet. Streetcar No. 162 joined Muni’s fleet when automobiles were still a novelty, and was retired — the first time — in the days when automobiles ruled the country, tail fins and all. No. 162 is painted in its last Muni livery, the Postwar "Wings" introduced at the end of the 1940s and kept until the retirement of the car in 1958. Like its twin, preserved car No. 130 (in 1939 blue and gold livery), this car ran on virtually all of Muni’s streetcar lines, spending much time on the H-line along Van Ness and Potrero Avenues and through Fort Mason. After its initial retirement, No. 162 spent 45 years at the Orange Empire Railway Museum in Riverside County before being reacquired in 2003 by Market Street Railway and Muni. Market Street Railway volunteers replaced the roof canvas and made a number of body repairs to the car. It then went to Muni’s shops in 2004, Muni crafts workers completed the restoration, including required safety and operational modifications, returning the car to regular service in 2008. The large size and long-term reliability of No. 162 make it a workhorse of today’s historic fleet, and very popular with San Franciscans of the Boomer Generation who remember it from childhood. Here, MUNI #162 cruises down Market Street during MUNI Heritage Weekend 2013.

MUNI 233 - MUNI's Newest Addition
Description:
Of all the streetcars in Muni's historic fleet, none turn heads faster than its two "boat trams" from Blackpool, England. They bring smiles to so many when they sail by -- nautical air whistle gaily tooting. Muni's boat trams are two of twelve built for the English seaside resort city of Blackpool in 1934. For many years, they ran along along the coastal promenade to Fleetwood, sharing the tracks with a wide variety of unusual English-built equipment. In the fall, Blackpool trams are specially decorated for the "illuminations," with elaborate lighting making the cars sparkle as the sun sets over the Irish Sea. The first boat tram to operate in San Francisco, No. 226, was leased from a museum for the first two years of the Trolley Festivals, 1983-84. The second, No. 228, was acquired for Muni with the help of Market Street Railway members in 1984 and shipped with support from Bechtel Group. No. 228 actually crossed the Atlantic twice. In 1976, it delighted Philadelphians as part of that city's bicentennial celebration. Returned to Blackpool, it sat unused until Muni acquired it. The great popularity of No. 228 led Market Street Railway to acquire a second boat tram, No. 233, for Muni in 2013. No. 233 was part of Blackpool Transport's fleet until 2010, when it was declared surplus and was preserved by the non-profit Lancastrian Transport Trust (LTT). When LTT needed funding for restoration of a vintage double-deck Blackpool tram, Market Street Railway purchased it to donate to Muni. Funding for the purchase came from a generous grant from the Thoresen Foundation. FedEx Trade Networks underwrote the shipping of the tram from England to San Francisco. The slight variations in these two originally identical trams reflect small changes Blackpool Transport made in them in the three decades between the acquisition of No. 228 and No. 233, a reminder that transit is a dynamic business where improvements are always sought. Here, MUNI #233 cruises down Market Street during MUNI Heritage Weekend 2013.

MUNI 1
Description:
Municipal Railway No. 1 is one of Americas most historic streetcars, for it was the first publicly-owned big city streetcar in the United States. Early in the 20th Century, American transit systems were privately-owned, often part of electric utilities. As a reaction to graft and corruption on the part of the citys privately-owned streetcar company, United Rajlroads of San Francisco (URR), and as a reflection of the Progressive Era then sweeping California, San Franciscans passed a bond to build their own public streetcar system, the Municipal Railway, firrt of its kind in a major American city. Mayor James Rolph, Jr. personally piloted this streetcar out Geary Street on December 28, 1912 to formally open Muni. He paid his own fare with one of the first 40 nickels minted at the San Francisco Mint. Fifty thousand San Franciscans turned out to cflebrate. Munis first streetcars were built without windows in their end sections (which served as the smoking sections). But foggy San Francisco weather proved too much for this arrangement, and the end-section windows of No. 1 and Muni streetcars were glazed by around 1918. Othewise, No. 1 looks almost identical to the day it first operated in 1912, down to its rattan seats and wooden interior paneling. Here, MUNI #1 cruises down Market Street during MUNI Heritage Weekend 2013.

MUNI 578 - The World's Oldest Streetcar
Description:
San Francisco streetcar No. 578 may be the world’s oldest streetcar still on the active roster of an urban transit agency. Built in San Francisco in 1896 by Hammond Car Co., the same firm that later built the California Street cable cars, this historic treasure is a bouncy single-trucker that was part of San Francisco’s first generation of electric streetcars.
