Went here for Muni Heritage. Historical things to see like trains, buses, patches, uniforms. SFMTA also hosted their own booth for selling MTA goods.

The place is small but we learned a lot and managed to have an employee teach us about all the particularly interesting and rare streetcars, and even got to see some of them in person.
