The San Francisco Municipal Railway was created in 1909 and opened its first streetcar lines in 1912. Five of the current lines were added in the following decades: the J in 1917, the K (including the

The Embarcadero to the Caltrain terminal at 4th and King Street opened in 1998.[2][3] The T Third Street line opened in 2007, serving the southeastern portion of the city.[4] The Central Subway, with three new subway stations and one new surface station, opened on November 19, 2022.[5]

The system has 113 stations, of which 59 (52%) are

accessible. All nine subway stations plus 24 surface stations have high-level platforms, 34-inch (860 mm) high, that allow for accessible level boarding at all doors.[6] The other 80 stations have a mixture of low-level platforms on dedicated right-of-way, low-level boarding islands (platforms between the tracks and traffic lanes), sidewalk bulbs
, and no platforms (where passengers cross parking or traffic lanes to board). Of those 80, 25 have "mini-high" platforms providing accessible boarding at a single door, while one has a wheelchair lift. Three stations on the L Taraval are being retrofitted with mini-high platforms as part of a reconstruction project.

Former stations

Prior to the late 1970s, there was a higher density of stops on the surface streetcar lines. Many of these stops were closed as the conversion to Muni Metro introduced longer trains and a desire for higher surface speeds. Most were had no infrastructure other than marked poles at street corners; several on the M Ocean View had small platforms. A number of stops on Market Street were closed when the Market Street subway opened; most are now served by the F Market & Wharves streetcar. Four stations with significant infrastructure were closed during conversion:
