San Francisco MUNI (SFMTA) Trolleybuses and Streetcars

This film features San Francisco's trolleybus and also shows a few scenes of its tram.

San Francisco's trolleybus system is quite large; it is supposedly the second largest in the western hemisphere. It consists of 14 lines and is operated (among other models) by a fleet of 239 Czech Škoda 14TrSF buses. This model has been derived off the 14Tr model, which is operating in many East European countries.

The light rail vehicles which can be seen at the end of the film are manufactured by Breda, an Italian company.
