The San Francisco trolleybus system forms part of the public transportation network serving San Francisco, in the state of California, United States. Opened on October 6, 1935,〔 it presently comprises 14 lines, and is operated by the San Francisco Municipal Railway, commonly known as ''Muni'' (or the Muni), with around 300 trolleybuses – or trolley buses (two words), the common American English spelling of the term. In San Francisco, these vehicles are also known as "trolley coaches" (a term that was the most common name for the mode in the United States in the middle decades of the 20th Century). One of only five such systems currently operating in the U.S.,〔 the Muni trolley bus system is the second-largest such system in the Western Hemisphere, after that of Mexico City. A particularly notable feature of its operations are very steep grades. The system includes the single steepest known grade on any existing trolley bus line in the world,〔Box, Roland (May–June 1989).

In addition, it shares some of its overhead wires with the F Market & Wharves streetcar line.
