use a surface turnback on The Embarcadero in an effort to reduce terminal delays at Embarcadero station. With the completion of the proposed but unfunded M Ocean View subway, the J Church would be re-routed to connect with the M Ocean View at a new four-track subway station at SF State. The J line would enter a new portal on 19th Avenue near Monticello Street with a subway tunnel following approximately the current M line alignment between Monticello Street and Holloway Avenue along 19th Avenue. Staff members of the SFMTA are studying the possible use of historic street cars to provide a one-seat service on the J Church to Embarcadero using existing surface tracks on Market Street as an alternative to running the J Church in the subway tunnel. Station listing Some stops have concrete boarding islands, while others require passengers to board from the street. Some stops have raised platforms for accessibility. While most other lines in the rail system can be run in two-car configurations, the J line is almost always run with a single car in order to accommodate the stops in the right-of-way, which are not long enough to have two light rail cars with open doors simultaneously.
