One of the oldest streetcar barns in the country, Carrollton Station on Willow Street fared the storm pretty well:
The station, pretty much buttoned up. With those big doors pulled down and no flood waters in the Uptown area, the historic Perley Thomas 900-series streetcars were well protected from the storm. The wind was pretty intense in this area, though. Several of the big, roll-down doors on the back (Jeannette St.) side of the station were blown inward, off of their tracks.
A quick peek inside the station, before a security guard shooed me away. Yes, that's a San Francisco cable car in the barn. RTA got that car in exchange for a Perley Thomas car that was sent out to Market Street Railway, in a trade that's up there with the Cubs giving up Greg Maddux in terms of lop-sided.
