About the Book

This book is an inside look at San Francisco’s famous cable cars as told by a veteran cable car gripman. It chronicles his experiences and observations of over 20 years of operating cable cars. See the cable cars at a dimension beneath the obvious level of riding or watching the cars. Read amusing anecdotes, learn about some crashes, and get an overview of what cable cars are really like behind the scenes.
