A Blue & Gold Ferry coming into Pier 39. I'm amazed how fast these boats maneuver about the pier without hitting anything! You can take a Blue & Gold Ferry between the Jack London Square Amtrak Station in Oakland over to Pier 39 in San Francisco. The Ferry Terminal in Jack London Square is only a few blocks from the station, right past the Waterfront Hotel.
The photos in this slide show were taken in the mid-1990's by Steve Grande on his Amtrak travels throughout the nation. The size of the photos is purposely smaller as disk space was expensive and download speeds were slower at that time.
