Look back to a time when electric trains cruised across the Bay Bridge and ferryboats carried commuters by the thousands every hour during the day. These times presented in this two-part DVD documentary production begin in the 1930s and during the WWII era when ship building produced a total of 1400 ships. See rare views the Richmond Shipyard Railway and the growth brought by the war.
See the full story of the Key System built by famous Borax Smith -- and how the fantastic East Bay growth was started by the great electric train system built there.
