San Francisco's world famous Cable Cars operate on the northeast side of San Francisco. Cable cars connect many of the popular tourist attractions in the City.
Invented in and for San Francisco, cable cars are pulled by a cable that runs in the middle of the track. Cable cars can therefore climb the steep hills in San Francisco. In the past, San Francisco had a much larger network of cable cars. Today, only three lines remain.
- California Line (Green)
- Powell-Hyde Line (Blue)
- Powell-Mason Line (Red)
