SF Muni is fascinating system. But, I find it hard to consider myself
a fan.
BART is far from unique,
But I stopped using them out of disgust when I lived in Union City
(first stop out of Fremont, on the East Bay).
I had used the train to go to Bakersfield at the South end of the
Central Valley, several times.
The first BART train on Saturday from Fremont connected with the
Amtrak train at Richmond, for a pleasant and comfortable Amtrak ride
the rest of the way.
But one morning nobody bothered to open up the Union City station, so
the BART train came and went.
So I drove via I-580 and I-5. which was more tiring, less convenient
and less comfortable.
And I never used BART again when I lived there.
Seems a bit petulant.
