Tips
This is the turnaround point for the Powell Street and Hyde Street cable cars; when they reach the end of the line, the operators jump out and use the turntable to spin the cable car around so it's ready for a new run. The whole scene is a party, with street performers and some of your quintessential San Francisco characters.

We waited for two hours, even though only one train was partially occupied and the others were empty. We decided not to take it.
