Last call for the 26-Valencia

December 4, 2009 by Elizabeth Weise

A nice story in the Chron about the demise of the 26 this coming Saturday. It turns out that the route  began in 1892 as one of the city’s oldest trolleys.

By Alissa Figueroa and Deia De Brito

On a late Monday afternoon, nextbus.com predicted the 26-Valencia would arrive in 21 minutes at the Mission District Muni stop. The next one, it promised, would come in an hour and a half.

“There’s more frequency going to Los Angeles on Southwest,” said Henry Hartefeldt as he waited for the Valencia 26.

“At times I don’t need it, it’s there. But when I need it, it’s not,” there said Harteveldt.

As of Saturday, the bus that began in 1892 as one of the city’s oldest trolleys will end its 108-year run.
