BTW, nice seeing you at WAS after the fantastic AEM-7 trip last Saturday. A very good excursion. Posted from Android Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 06/23/16 21:00 by stash.

It's a good visual explanation of why a lot of the lines were simply paved over and not removed after the demise of the streetcars. In the spring a lot of potholes appear and tracks re-emerge. I call the annual "Revenge of Capital Transit."

Clarence G Date: 06/25/16 00:02 Re: National Capital Trolley Museum Author: casco17 Looks pretty extensive - a lot of storage tracks. Was any of that built on a historic part of the rail system, or was it all a "new" location when the museum was set up?
