WPLives 29th Jun 2021		Fascinating history of the numerous electric street railways (interurbans) that once criss-crossed northern California and the San Francisco Bay area. Covers the Interurban Electric Railway (the Big Red Cars), the Key System, the Market Street Railway, the Northwestern Pacific Railroad, the Peninsular Railway, the Petaluma & Santa Rosa Railroad, the Sacramento Northern, and the San Francisco, Napa & Calistoga Railway. There is a roster and map for each railroad line. The book also discusses the Bay area ferry lines (with rosters), smaller streetcar lines, and the "what ifs?" represented by BART. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos. With list of car builders and ferryboat builders. 199 pages with index.
