First D.C. Streetcar in 50 Years on Tracks for Testing!


After 50 years, streetcars will soon be operating again in Washington, D.C. The other day while biking around the H St. NE neighborhood, I witnessed the Czech-built streetcar on the tracks for testing that will take several months before the three new streetcars will start picking up passengers along the 2.4 mile route from Union Station through the revitalized H St. NE corridor to the Anacostia River.

This is the first stretch of what will eventually be a 22-mile system that will connect to Georgetown via K St. NW and go to other destinations around the city.

Here are pictures of the D.C. Streetcar and the H St. NE rails and a streetcar stop:
