Butler Road was a train station in South San Francisco, California, in operation until July 1983 on the Peninsula Commute, a commuter rail service run by Southern Pacific between San Francisco and communities on the San Francisco Peninsula. The Butler Road train shelter was built in 1926. It was located adjacent to a steel mill that opened in 1913, was purchased by the Western Pipe and Steel Company in 1917, and was owned from 1948 by United States Steel and its divisions,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://bitsofhistory.plsinfo.org/thumbnailtext.asp?offset=360&id=475 )〕 which closed the mill in 1983.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://bitsofhistory.plsinfo.org/thumbnailtext.asp?offset=360&id=475 )〕 Service to the Butler Road stop was also discontinued that year. The Butler Road stop was relatively little-used for much of its existence. In 1958, for example, only four of the 27 total northbound weekday commuter trains stopped at the station.〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Jafafa Hots (Flickr member) )〕 In 1978, only three of the 22 total northbound weekday trains stopped there.〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Railsaroundthebay.net )〕 Butler Road, the road itself, has been renamed Oyster Point Boulevard. The Peninsula Commute service was renamed Caltrain in 1985, the name by which it is still known. The Butler Road station was located between the still-operational Bayshore and South San Francisco stations. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Butler Road (Peninsula Commute station)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
