“What happens if I pull this?” I really want to know what happened after this kid discovered an interesting lever on Muni. Today we’re featuring the many interesting faces seen on Muni, including a pet of which I have a terrible phobia (hint: it’s not the dog). Dear readers, never say I don’t love you.

Enjoy these photos and your weekend!

Muni station diaries are a cousin of Muni diaries. Not quite the same when you’re stationary. But things. They happen. And they happen underground.

Witness @fizzylex‘s retelling in this tweet:

“There is a string quartet at Montgomery Station playing Bohemian Rhapsody.”

Wonder which instrument played “Scaramouche! Scaramouche! Will you do the Fandango?!”

100 Days, 100 Muni Stories is our way of celebrating Muni’s centennial. If you have a perfect Muni memory, share it with us. Tag your Muni tweets #100MuniStories. All 100 stories have a chance of ending up on bus ads later this year!

Cool Transit Ad: The Beach Rides With You

June 15, 2012 jeff 3 comments

The weather is supposed to be nice (hot, even) this weekend. Perfect time to take an N-Judah out to the water.

Or, if we were as lucky as these South Korean commuters, the “beach” would be right there with us on the ride.

Seriously, the sand and water would be a great exfoliant/rinse for most Muni LRVs.

Being nosy while riding public transit in San Francisco requires new levels of skills, as evidenced by this tweet observation.
