Key System

The Key System Railway (or Key System Interurban) was a light-rail system that served the eastern San Francisco Bay Area from the 1900s until its removal in the late 1950s. It was the eastern counterpart to the San Francisco Municipal Railway or ?Muni? streetcar system. The Key System's original service area is now predominantly covered by BART and AC Transit diesel buses. Today, the vast majority of East Bay residents do not realize an extensive light rail system once existed in their communities.
