Daily public transit ridership

Description:

Picking up from where other San Francisco public transit historians have left off, Peter Felton's book gives readers an acute internal perspective as to the routine external operations of the late 20th-, early-21st-century-era San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (or "Muni" as it is more commonly nicknamed). Ranging from vehicular characteristics to urban development above and below ground level, Felton provides intricate details into the life and times of the "average Joe" public transit rider traveling around the City of San Francisco by bus or subway train. With a majority of the information taken strictly from a young lifetime of permanent public custom, Felton colorfully outlines the awe and wonder arising from riding this means of public service day-in-and-day-out, acknowledging realities and comparing-contrasting past, present, and future transit modalities drawn completely from personal experience and observation-yet portrayed entirely on a "general basis." - Amazon.com
