San Francisco Transit

The city by the bay is a transit fan’s paradise with so many different modes of transport, from the iconic cable cars to the once-futuristic BART trains. You do not need a car to get around the city; it is getting better around the entire Bay Area.

BART is nearly as iconic to SF as the Cable Cars. This is a cross between a subway and a commuter network. If this was Germany, it would be an S-Bahn.
