Celebrate a milestone in Washington transportation history at the National Capital Trolley Museum!

This August marks the anniversary of the 1937 arrival of DC Transit #1101, Washington, D.C.’s first PCC streetcar. Join us for a special weekend celebrating the PCC streetcars that helped transform public transportation in the nation’s capital.

The weekend will feature:

• Rides aboard our operable PCC streetcars

• Presentations exploring PCC streetcar history

• Family-friendly activities for children

• The opening of our new WMATA exhibit, “Building the Region: 50 Years of Washington Metrorail”

Come experience history in motion and discover how generations of public transportation, from the PCC streetcar to Metrorail, have connected and shaped the Washington region.
