The Key System from the early years of 500s and 600s plus the
ferryboat pier. See the Key's new bridge units in their original,
striking, orange and silver splendor. Also we bring supporting scenes
of the IER Red Trains, Muni Railway, steam trains and the Key's small
streetcars. Ride and watch beautiful ferryboats shot on some of the
first early 16mm color film.
Watch the construction and operation of the WWII Richmond Shipyard
Railway by Key's staff. This line was built from Emeryville north to
Richmond?s Kaiser Shipyards to transport thousands of workers that
built 747 Victory and Liberty ships for the war. Retired IRT elevated
cars were rebuilt to make long, and elderly, electric trains. This is
a fascinating look at Bay Area history. Don't miss the Key's X-trains
and ferryboats to the 1939 Golden Gate Expo. This video has many
animated graphical maps made just for video clarity and better
