The Bay Area Rapid Transit system (short BART) is a rapid transit commuter rail and subway system serving San Francisco, Oakland, and the surrounding suburbs of the San Francisco Bay Area. It uses 1676mm Indian gauge.
It began operation in 1972 and extends over 167km and 44 stations. Its fleet consists of two types of stock. A and B stock was produced by Rohr Industries between in the late 60s early 70s. The more recent C stock has been produced by Alstom and Morrison-Knudsen in the 80s.

Yellow-line trains continue to Millbrae from SFO on weekends and after 9 p.m. on weekdays. The Richmond - Millbrae line skips SFO all times, and continues to Millbrae when the Yellow line does not. The line stops at San Bruno if the Yellow line continues to Millbrae.

SAN FRANCISCO BART
Hoy les traigo el sistema Bay Area Rapid Transit de la ciudad de San Francisco en California.
Ni tren, ni metro, el BART es una especie de tren suburbano subterráneo.
Aunque es muy divertido viajar en él, apenas lo tomé para ir al aeropuerto y regresar. Para moverme por San Francisco opté por el famoso Cable Car o los tranvías PCC de los cuáles, grabé mucho contenido de ambos, así que dentro de poco, subiré un video de ellos.

Today I bring you the San Francisco's Bay Area Rapid Transit, which is more like a subterranean suburban train.
Although it was really fun riding on it, I opted to use the famous Cable Car or the good old PCC trolleys, on which I recorded a lot of media, so I would upload a video of them soon!
