Cable Car Museum

The Cable Car Museum is a free museum located in San Francisco's Nob Hill area. It is located at 1201 Mason Street and has historical and educational displays about the San Francisco cable car system, which may be considered a functional museum in and of itself.


The museum is part of a larger complex that also includes the cable car power building and car depot. The car depot is closed to the public, but two galleries allow visitors to see the power plant from above and descend below Washington and Mason streets to see the vast cavern where the haulage cables are run out to the street by large sheaves. The Friends of the Cable Car Museum has been running the museum since 1974. The museum is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. between April 1 and September 30, and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. between October 1 and March 31, with the exception of select public holidays. A second entrance leads to the museum's main floor, which is handicapped accessible.
