SAN FRANCISCO LIGHT RAIL
Ocean in the Distance

The cross street just ahead in this scene is 40th Ave.  Although the ocean is well over a half mile away, the camera's zoom capabilities exaggerate both the nearness of the water and the magnitude of the downgrade required to get there.  But it's a lovely -- perhaps awesome -- view either way.  Both light rail and regular street traffic use the inner lanes here.  There are frequent four-way stops along Judah, even though in most cases it is the much busier street.
