The Key System (Update 3: Streetcars and Streamliners)

Originally opened in 1903 by Francis "Borax" Smith, the Key System was an electric interurban railway that connected the cities of the east bay to the bustling city of San Francisco. While originally relying on a fleet of ferries to transport passengers across the bay, the opening of the Bay Bridge in 1938 allowed trains to run all the way into downtown SF to the newly opened Transbay Terminal. Though the Key System eventually ceased operations in 1960, you can still experience this unique operation in Rolling Line!

This latest update is a strange one, as a fair portion of it does not focus on the Key System. You see, a fair portion of the H Line (which is the primary focus of this update) is paralleled by the Santa Fe's line into Emeryville, hosting such name trains as the Golden Gate and the San Francisco Chief. But that's not all! Along with the full H line and the AT&SF sections this update also includes the short G line branch to Westbrae, a local trolley service that interchanged with the H line at University Avenue. Thanks again for all the support for this project, I hope you enjoy!
