Seilbahn
Cable cars were operated on the street from 1880 to 1912 by the Geary Street, Park and Ocean Railway. They initially ran from Market Street to Central (now Presidio), connecting to an extension running steam-powered cars along Geary to 1st Avenue (now Arguello), whereupon they turned south to approach Golden Gate Park. In 1892, the cable car line was extended to 5th Avenue, where it turned south to reach Golden Gate Park directly. Despite its name, the Geary Street Park &amp; Ocean Railway never actually reached the ocean.
