San Francisco Municipal Railway general bulletins
Manuscripts
Fascinating look at the inner workings of the San Francisco Municipal Railway during the 1920s and 1930s, with notices to trolley men and motormen, many relating to safety, such as this cautionary admonition on September 15, 1931, "From the nature of recent reports, it is evident that some of the motormen operating cars on the 'E' Line are not as attentive to business as they should be, and are thereby endangering the safety of the traveling public as well as others..." And on April 9, 1930, "There is altogether too much conversation being carried on with car crews by employees, both on and off duty." On May 13, 1935, "Foreign Objects on Rail" are addressed, noting that "Complaints are continually being received from residents along our lines that cars make an unusual noise caused by running over objects on car rails... Hereafter, motormen must be careful not to run over any obstruction...." On March 22, 1934, a sample of a U.S. Army Military Police badge is sent out, with the instruction that "Conductors will honor this star when presented for transportation...." Most of the bulletins are signed by Fred Boeken, Superintendent of Muni. There are also a few related letters amongst the bulletins.
