Red Trains Remembered (Special 75) [first edition]

Wonderful collection of previously unpublished black and white photos that show the Southern Pacific's San Francisco East Bay electric routes in their heyday. We begin the tour at the Oakland Pier, that amazing ferryboat-to-electric car transfer center, and then look into the powerhouse and substations, ride the ferries, glimpse the electric cars in every possible setting, inspect the Bridge Railway, walk the Bridge Terminal in the hours before its grand opening, and meet the train and boat crews and shopmen. Step back in time and remember the glory of the Red Trains and the white ferries and the people who made them work. With 16 pages of timetables.
