Well done. These are the best shots I have ever seen of the double deck nature of the Market St. subway.

Thanks a lot! That's actually very nice to hear for me, because I did try to get good shots while utilizing the two levels, so I'm glad a could deliver!

SF's Bus system is very fun i definitely recommend it. going up all of those q5 and 16% grade hills with those short and stubby 30ft buses and the overhead wire trolley buses. I would also recommend the Streetcars of San Francisco

lol barts gauge is so weird (5 ft 6 in)

I noticed the BART trains have an odd number of cars each!

Up until 2015 the orange line even ran with 3 cars during the off peak

Interesting thread - 4 years later and BART now only runs 10-car trains all day, an artifact of the pandemic. You know which trains are the new clean ones as they are "3-door" trains.

OMG it's da R144A!

Ya mean R142A, right? Yeah, the Bart A, B, and C cars' propulsion (that's what they're called) sound very similar to the R142, R142A, and R143.

Actually, one might say it the other way around, because these cars are 40 years old!

They do, don't they? The BART is actually making new cars now, and they're SUPER UGLY and VERY WEIRD SOUNDING (they're not in service, but one can see them strewn about in yards). Also, which do you think is older, the slanted one or the flat-faced one?

dude at 6:03 that Bart sounded a lot like the r142a

They all do. The propulsion in all the current Bart cars sounds very similar to the r142, r142a, and r143

It's not in one city, but connects (most of) the Bay Area. This station is in San Francisco
