This was the main passenger railway station in San Francisco handling trains carrying passengers from all over the United States. See this web site for a newspaper article about prior stations at this location - (visit link) Over the years, it has morphed into a major commuter railway terminal for Caltrains, serving the San Francisco Peninsula. The plan is to extend the line to the vicinity of Market Street in an underground tunnel and new underground station.
