"After nearly 30 years of service and millions of rides, San Francisco's iconic Breda light rail trains are heading into retirement, and you're invited to hop aboard for one final farewell. These chunky silver and red trains have been rolling through the city since 1996, hauling Giants fans to the ballpark, students to class, and locals to work, the beach, and beyond. Now, as the sleeker, faster Siemens LRV4 fleet takes over, Muni is sending the Bredas off in style."
