Dr. Zarkoff ATSF and WP ran freight across the bay by water. There were even three spots to unload cars up unto 1978 I think. State Belt had it's own slip down Pier 39 way. I think WP closed up operations in 1978. Thereafter cars had to be turned over to the SP to get them into SF.

So there was more than just the SP line way into SF, if you can believe it!

In NYC, there were many many car float operations and there is still one running to this day!
