Doing an appointment trip to Redwood City, I stopped at Target to get a Michael's Transportation bus. Afterward, I tracked SamTrans Gillig battery electric bus 5000 on route 295.

Drove up to San Francisco, where I began by waiting for Muni New Flyer 8888 on 54 Felton, then getting New Flyer 6612 (psychedelic livery) on the 49. New Flyer 7227 was formerly another psychedelic liveried coach, but it was changed to an advertisement for an AI company. It was also running on the 49 Van Ness/Mission line.

Was advised by text that California cable car 55, newly reintroduced to service in the 1950s Muni green and cream livery, was out. I got shots at the western end.

Later I went to Embarcadero and Bay for some partly shadowed streetcar shots. After dinner, I did put the 35mm f/1.8 lens on the camera and did night shots of streetcars at Jones and Beach Sts., the Fishermans Wharf terminal of F Market. When PCC 1010 (Muni blue and gold livery) came back around, I tracked it down the J Church on its pullin run, getting shots at 22nd St., 30th St., and at Balboa Park.

Nikon D5600 camera yielded 421 photos.
