  • As a Longtime Fan of NHK World's Japan Railway Journal, I've Seen
    ISSUE 3 MAY 3, 2020 watching. Spuzz’s 2003 review also points out that there is even “a cute animated character which adds NOTHING to the film.” Who could pass on that? During World War II, the Key System temporarily expanded and ran trains directly to the Richmond Shipyard from 40th and San Pablo. The railroad was built using scrap material and decommissioned New York subway cars. The Key Route’s reign ended in 1958, and its privately-held services were replaced by public transit agencies AC Transit (which bought out the Key System) and later BART. P.S. if you want to have a good time with conspiracy theories, check out the demise of the Key Route as a factor in the GM Streetcar Conspiracy, which weirdly I had never realized is the basis for the plot of the movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit?! Vestiges of the Key Route still linger on in the East Bay. I was most excited to learn that the mysterious tunnel behind the Target on the West Oakland-Emeryville border was actually a subway for Key System trains (and now leads to a sewer that is part of East Bay MUD). As a longtime fan of NHK World’s Japan train hopper serial killer who struck on NOTE: the Key System also included Railway Journal, I’ve seen the our railroad line here in 1996. Finally, ferries, which leads to my perpetual aftermath of many Shinkansen I did a deep dive into historic East Bay question: WHY IS THERE NO FERRY SERVICE derailments. I never thought I’d see railways.
