the SF muni boat tram

As I said in my previous post, we used public transit for all our transportation needs during our recent visit to San Francisco: buses, trams and rail.

But then again, it was San Francisco, so I wasn’t surprised to see some more unusual public transportation options such as this Boat Tram which trundles along Market St. Built for use on the Blackpool sea-front in England, it seems well suited to it’s adopted home. Of course, the “Nowhere in Particular” destination is pure Californian.

Head on over to DeliciousBaby for more Photo Friday fun.

    Okay, I just spent several minutes trying to figure out how the tram got into the water before it dawned on me that of course it isn’t that kind of boat…haha. So interesting, I never knew such a thing existed!

    Awesome! I’ve never even heard of these. I can’t believe you scooped me on my home turf!
