Celebrate the anniversary of the arrival of the Presidents' Conference Committee (PCC) street cars in the nation's Capital! These cars may have made their DC debut 85 years ago, but their iconic silhouette and revolutionary engineering continue to inspire and bring back memories.

  • Ride a variety of cars from our beautifully restored PCC collection including DC Transit #1101!

  • See video footage of the 14th Street Line, DC’s first PCC route in 1937

  • Check out a special TTrak (N-gauge) model trolley display

  • Design your own PCC livery (colors) at our children’s activity for your chance to win a free return trip to the museum!

  • 1pm — Presentation: PCC's in Washington and Around the World with Jim Hogan

  • 2:30pm — Presentation: PCC Restoration with Matthew Nawn and Harry Donahue
