Museum Monday: Baltimore Street Car Museum

February 7th, 2011 by WLOY Staff

How often does one hear about the heydays of streetcars in Baltimore, or better yet ride around in them? Since the jazzy flapper filled times of the roaring 1920s, Baltimore’s streetcar use declined and spiraled into eventual non-existence. But there is one place these beautiful street machines live on!

The Baltimore Street Car Museum displays multiple streetcars ranging in size and antiquity. Admission, $7 for adults, includes unlimited rides on authentic Baltimore streetcars and an all around enjoyable chance to learn some stellar streetcar history. Located only a short jaunt from Loyola on Falls Road, the Baltimore Streetcar Museum will drive you wild.

The Baltimore Streetcar Museum is open Sundays 12p.m-5p.m. Located on 1901 Falls Road. Call 410-547-0264 or visit their website for more information.
