Talk about a fare hike!
Not sure that Sean realized how much this would crack us up.
I noticed this after boarding the N-Judah a while back.
Maybe this Clipper reader is a cyborg from 2013 that’s come back to destroy the son of … never mind.

Decorating Muni Streetcars for the Holidays
Inside streetcar 1818 as it’s being decorated for the holidays
Last Saturday, Tara and I joined folks from Market Street Railway in what has become an annual tradition: The hanging of wreaths, streamers, and garlands on the historic F-Market/Wharves streetcars.
Here are a few of our behind-the-scenes shots. Look for car 1818 (already a green-and-red livery) on the streets in all its holiday glory soon!
MSR volunteers adorn the outside of car 1818 with garlands

Car 496 (Melbourne) also got some love on Saturday from the volunteers
In memory of streetcar No. 106 (update)
Update: Over on Market Street Railway’s blog today, they provide more background on streetcar No. 106. Read the MSR post for more.
Original post: You already know that we loves us some tattoos of the Muni worm and Muni vehicles. So this little treat in our submission inbox the other day put a big ol’ smile on our faces. From Alex:
The car in the tattoo and that Alex refers to is No. 106, a Moscovite awaiting restoration by the good folks at Market Street Railway. We hope to see car 106 on the streets of San Francisco someday soon. Thanks, Alex. And, nice tattoo!
