The Powell-Mason line runs over Nob Hill, Russian Hill and ends at Aquatic Park.
The Powell-Hyde line runs over Nob Hill to Fisherman's Wharf.
The California Street line runs from the Financial district over Chinatown, Nob Hill to the Van Ness Avenue.
There are currently 40 cars in service: 28 single-enders serve the Powell Street routes and 12 double-enders serve the California Street route.
