  • On Fast, Safe, Convenient, Comfortable, Cheap Travel, Via Public Transit
    The Travelin’ Grampa Touring the U.S.A. without an automobile Focus on fast, safe, convenient, comfortable, cheap travel, via public transit. Vol. 6, No. 9, August 2013 Photo credits: San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (Muni); Fred Hsu @ Wikipedia; S.F. Muni.. L to R: San Francisco Muni light rail train at Caltrain station, and Muni quiet trackless trolley and famous Muni antique cable streetcar, the latter each climbing steep legendary Nob Hill. San Francisco electric bus ride is smooth & quiet Grampa is just back from a California trip, where he rode on all manner of public transit. Especially pleasant was an incredibly smooth and silent ride on a San Francisco Muni Route 30 electric trackless trolley, from Ghirardelli Square, through Chinatown, to 5th & Market Street in mid-downtown. Powering this vehicle is an extremely quiet electric motor, a stark contrast to the noisy diesel engines that propel most urban transit buses. Two poles poke up from its roof to get electricity from twin overhead power lines. This bus glided along Columbus Avenue and Sansome and Mason streets as if floating on air. No jerking. No bumping. No grinding gears. As if respecting its extremely quiet environment, its passengers whispered to one another. Likewise, those speaking on cell phones. Muni runs more than 300 electric trolleybuses over 14 different routes. Only four other USA municipalities have them: Boston/Cambridge, Dayton, Philadelphia and Seattle. Muni’s Route #30 trolleybus is city transit as city transit should be. Photo credits: Public Transportation @ en.wikipedia; Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corp. Real trolleys have a trolley pole and wheel.
