From technological innovation to an icon synonymous with San Francisco, our cable car system has endured for 150 years. This exhibition draws on the collections of the San Francisco History Center and San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SF MTA) Photo Archive to explore and celebrate this rich and complex history. Cable cars rolled into the local transit scene on August 2, 1873, as a new solution to traversing San Francisco’s notoriously hilly geography. Within twenty years, they hit peak operation with eight companies running lines from the Ferry Building to Golden Gate Park.
