How Cable Cars Are Turned Around in San Francisco

Cable cars are not able to go in reverse, so they must be manually turned around. Cable car operators jump out to slow down the car, all by hand, atop a revolving wooden platform at the terminus of the Powell Street lines. The other San Francisco cable car turnaround is located at Powell and Mason Street. #cablecar #cablecars #tramways
