San Francisco’s Boneyard for Zombie Streetcars

Today, it’s used mainly as a parking lot for derelict streetcars — a kind of purgatory for old trolleys as they await either restoration or piecemeal cannibalization to sustain the still-active streetcars in Muni’s thriving vintage streetcar fleet. The Marin Yard is protected by a big fence and grumpy security guards, but (Todd Lappin) was invited in for a tour with Market Street Railway, a nonprofit group dedicated to the preservation of San Francisco’s historic streetcars.

The site has photos.
