The Streetcar Museum in Colorado Springs


While we continue to explore our new town of Colorado Springs, I had discovered a small sign on the way to my hospital that said there was a Streetcar Museum. So one Saturday in April, we all headed down to explore. It was a surprising treat. It is a living museum where volunteers are actively restoring street cars that once went up and down Tejon Street in Colorado Springs. Here are some of the pictures from our day.
One of the highlights of the day was stomping on a button to ring the bell on the restored street car. It took William a few tries to figure it out, but once he did it was "DING DING DING!!!"

Getting on the Philadelphia Street Car that we got to ride on about 150 feet of track.

Mommy and William are riding the Street Car.


William and his new friend got the chance to "Drive" the Streetcar.
