2. Pittsburg, Duquesne Incline is a 145 year old cable. Google it. When it opened, an operator was

hired to run it. He got in the front of it, looked down over the cliff and immediately walked off the job.

3. Years in the city I only rode a cable car once

When my brother and his wife came to visit we rode the California line out of downtown, walked the rest of the way to pacific heights where I lived.

4. I'm old enough that

the first time I rode a cable car it cost ten cents. If you hung on to the outside it was free. This was in 1961. A lot of people depended on them for actual public transportation and getting back and forth to work. Now, it's mostly tourists.

I never lived in San Francisco but I lived in the south bay and various places on the peninsula for 30 years. I always love your videos of the city. They bring back nothing but good memories.
