This week on Muni Time Capsule, we bring you the first-ever printed Muni time table. In 1972, Muni driver Richard Morley decided that riders deserved to know when to expect buses. So he set out on his own to print schedules for riders. Yep, the first Muni time table wasn’t even published by Muni, but by a courteous and courageous driver.
