1984

Sunday Feature - Another Place, Another Time
PCC 1052 Transbay Terminal, 1984
I scanned this from a slide I took almost 30 years ago.
The streetcar is still in service of course although it may have been rebuilt once or twice.
This section of the system, the Transbay Terminal, is now gone.
Here's a shot of the same streetcar I managed to grab last night.

I absolutely love the second shot Wayne: The people barely visible in the windows,riding to who knows where, allows my imagination to run wild, and the night lights of the city - ahhhh. Brings back memories of going to school in Boston and riding the trolleys back in the late 60s!!! :) Only they were a different color and didn't look so clean... :) Very nice shot!

Wow! Same number. Pretty good streetcar.

That streetcar is a classic. Long may it continue to run. Brings back fond memories of riding the Clark Street Car in Chicago with my Grandmother, both now long gone.
