What - Where - When - Why





  • Mini History of Sutro Baths

  • Taxis

    So that's where all the cabs are!
    As can be seen from the photo, this was once a very busy location in San Francisco.
    The building in the picture is no longer there and the activity in the area has changed completely, but it is still a very busy location.

    A free copy of Railway Adventures: A Guide to European Steam and Mountain Railways will be sent to the first person to e-mail me with the correct answer.

  • Arches and street cars

    This was a one-of-a-kind street in San Francisco until World War ll.
    The metal arches were taken down to be used in the war effort.

    Do you know the name of the street and/or the time period?




    Answer to above Mystery Photo.

    The photo is of Fillmore Street and the arches were at each intersection between
    approximately Eddy Street and Sutter Street. They were erected in the early 1900s.
    The steel/iron arches were removed in c1943 to be recycled for use in the war effort.

  • Aerial car

    Does anyone out there know what this is? Where it was?
    How long it operated? When? From where to where?
    Has anyone out there ridden it?





  • Sky Tram

    Answer to Mystery Photo above.

    This is the Cliff House station of the Sky Tram that traveled
    above Ocean Beach, behind Sutro Baths, to Point Lobos.
    The tram was in operation from c1955 to c1967.
  • Merry-go-round

    This photo was taken at the time of a significant event. Does anyone know
    what that was? Where was this merry-go-round located?
    Does anyone know the present whereabouts of this carrousel?




    Answer: This photo was taken on September 24, 1972, the last day of its
    operation at Playland at the Beach. Playland was in the process of being
    demolished so after going round and round for 58 years, the carrousel was
    being saved for another run somewhere else.
    Completely refurbished and looking as good as new, today the old merry-
    go-round is once again making children happy. This time it is on the roof
    top at Yerba Buena Gardens in San Francisco.
