Book excerpt: The reader is taken on a joyously meandering ride over a thirty year span, telling how San Francisco's F-line came about, through the efforts of a multitude of San Franciscans including visionaries, planners and engineers, politicians and community activists, transit operators and everyday transit riders. The idea of vintage streetcar operations was born in the 1970s, and then becomes tangible with the "Trolley Festivals" in the 1980s. It took another 20 years for the "F-Line" to become a permanent part of San Francisco's transit scene, and that saga is told as well.
