The San Francisco Cable Car is an iconic symbol of the city's transportation system and a beloved attraction for visitors. These historic cable cars have been in operation since the late 19th century and offer a unique and nostalgic way to explore the hilly streets of San Francisco.
The cable car system operates using an underground cable that runs beneath the street. The cable is continuously moving and is powered by a central powerhouse. The gripman, located inside the car, controls the movement of the car by manually grasping and releasing the moving cable with a mechanical grip device.
San Francisco's cable car network consists of three lines: the Powell-Hyde Line, the Powell-Mason Line, and the California Street Line. Each line has its own distinctive route, traversing different neighborhoods and landmarks. The lines offer scenic views of the city's iconic sights, including Lombard Street, Coit Tower, and Fisherman's Wharf.
Riding a San Francisco Cable Car is an experience in itself. Passengers can choose to either stand on the running boards outside the car or sit inside on the wooden seats. As the cable car climbs up steep hills and navigates sharp turns, riders can enjoy breathtaking views of the city's skyline and the San Francisco Bay.

I live across the bay from San Francisco…..I have ridden the cables cars many times….but still I am watching this video ! 🤣🤣🇺🇸… never get tired of the views from those SF hills !

@HengMiao Год назад

Woohoo, it must have been a thrilling experience standing on the side during the ride! 🤩 9:49 Going up the steep hill! The operator was so friendly and nice to let you take a look around the vintage cable car after the ride was done. 😎 Thank you for sharing this fun and scenic ride, AK! 🤗

@ActionKid Год назад

Glad you enjoyed it! It was such a fun experience to ride the cable car

@benlee6500 Год назад

Spot on AK, the cable car took you to the top of the hill.. .it's too steep to walk 🚶‍♂️ upwards...Nice surroundings though...

@ActionKid Год назад

I really enjoyed the surroundings

@yoyobass100 Год назад

The cable cars also take a fare card called Clipper. Similar to the Easy and OMNY cards from Miami and NYC respectively.

@jarihult Год назад

Very neat Cable Car ride in San Francisco ,it look great and the ride itself was enjoyable ,even at that steep hill 9:54 i wouldn’t walk up that hill lol😎Thank you for sharing A K 🙂👍!!!

It is not electric. The only things electric is the battery beneath the cable car for the headlights and marker lights on the roof and the interior lights.

Another cute tram 1944-1947 and it's still working what a treasure. This is worth $8.00 you have spectacular views and iconic buildings in every direction .I could ride the trams all day .

@ActionKid Год назад

I can't believe these cable cars are still operating

@TohaBgood2 Год назад

Well, actually (🤓), cable cars were invented in San Francisco and spread all over the world from there. So these actually have been continuously running in SF since 1869. (With short pauses for the larger earthquakes.) These vehicles range in age from late 19th century cars to some that were actually built brand new by Muni themselves due to increasing demand. So this one is relatively "new" compared to some of the really old ones that you can catch. That being said, the really really old ones from the 19th century are usually in the Cable Car museum and they only bring them out on the routes for special events.

@lornahardin4563 Год назад

Fun ride Ken, enjoyed seeing the buildings, knowing somewhere in San Fran my grandma ran a boarding house on VanNess. This was fun.

I just recently (today) watched your video of the NY subway from Chinatown to Queens....and here we are...enjoying something I've actually experienced. I visited SF in early Summer 2012 with my then girlfriend......kinda fell in love with the city, a little bit....got a feel for what Tony Bennett was singing about....very charming city! But I was absolutely fascinated by the cable cars.....fantastic example of late 19th century engineering and ingenuity!

Of course it is noisy! After all it is pulled by a cable that has hooks to catch the pins on the cable gear and there are iron wheels underneat the streets every 200 yards to the end of the line. There are 3 cable car lines. Mason, Hyde, that share tracks on Powell Street and the California Street line.

@ActionKid Год назад

There's a lot that goes into running these cable cars that people don't see

MUNI’s CLIPPER is also accepted just like on the buses and the light rails.

Thank you for the great video and especially for mentioning how the cable car rides are included on a Muni visitors passport--many, if not most, visitors don't realize this.

8/2024....Excellent video. I visited SF in June of 1988, with my girlfriend, (now wife), we were both 35, and Artists. We met in graduate school, my art career was in full swing in 88, I was creating Art furniture, and exhibiting them. She went from creating sculptures that resembled cakes, to making real (edible) cakes that were sculptures. Friends of ours would commission her to build 3-D, layered cakes, frosted to resemble real objects. We live in Columbus, Ohio. We took the cable cars often, they were fascinating machines from yesteryear, the "grip" operators were often colorful characters. Everyone was so friendly, and we are always surrounded by cheerful tourists, like ourselves. We sat and stood at times. We also did a lot of walking. We walked most of the length of the Golden Gate Bridge and back. We both loved eating unique pastries and sipping cappuccino in cozy outdoor cafes.

A bit of personal history on the SF cable cars. In 1962 I was 12. My family traveled from NJ to CA to visit our relatives. We went on the California Zephyr were you flushed the toilet right out on to the tracks. We got to ride the Powell cable car. Back then when it came time to turn the car around; it was done by the passengers, but men only. I remember my parents taking a picture of me helping. I love your style, no dumb comments or music that not everyone will like. Also watching 'New Yorker Rides the San Francisco Cable Car | Powell-Mason Line' I noticed that at 15:30 there are only three tracks; the trolley shares the middle track. You said nothing abut it. Did you miss it? As a rail fan I've never seen that before.

@williamscoggin1509 5 месяцев назад

The noise of the equipment and the jerking and the roughness is the fun of riding the cable car. 👍🏻😎

@timcoyle50 6 месяцев назад

First time I rode that cable car the turn table was not blocked off but in traffic, next to Woolworths in 1967.

quando chove as pessoas que andam no cable car se molham?

Too many vacant storefronts which is sad but good to see a nice line of tourists at the cable car turnaround and the good amount of foot traffic around Union Square 😊

Lol, I can't believe that you lot are still trying to push this propaganda. SF is back to about 80% of pre-pandemic tourist visits. It was at 50% last year, and at 30% in 2021. They are projecting that they will exceed 2019 levels by next year. Interestingly, in dollar terms somehow the tourist spend is already more than in 2019. I guess the inflation during the pandemic increased the prices. I urge you to keep in mind that showing the one trashy neighborhood in SF on repeat on Fox News does not in any way impact the fact that SF is still one of the cleanest and safest US cities. The crime numbers don't lie. Even after SF recent "spike" in crime, it's still twice safer than for example Florida.
