Best #hashtags for Muni?

In September, SFMTA’s Twitter account unveiled the hashtags it would be using to provide real-time updates for followers. Here’s a sample:

#MuniMetro = Muni Metro Subway between Van Ness and Embarcadero stations. We use this designation because delays in this stretch of the subway affect all of the light rail lines: J, K, L, M, N & T.

Historic Streetcar Line:

#fmarket = F Market & Wharves

See the full list of SFMTA hashtags here.
