Geneva Car House

Geneva car house. Back story: In 1981 an old car ran as a novelty. Car 1 ran for first time with regular passenger service since 1962, from East Bay Terminal to J-Line for 75th Anniversary of Earthquake/Fire. That was a success, then they paired Car #1 with #178, pictured here in car house yard on Geneva. This experiment eventually resulted in F-Market line.
