Great Video Profile of a Cable Car Operator, Carpenter, and Mechanic

The fantastic footage (with ambient-only sound) and trivia, combined with an infusion of pride for San Francisco's past and present, make this segment, called simply, "Cable Cars," a great way to spend 5 minutes of computer time. Along the way, you'll meet: Ken Lunardi, operator; Norm Feyling, mechanic; and Bob Harris, carpenter.

Produced by Greg Burk for SFGTV's award-wining magazine series "City In Focus."
