In the early 20th century, Baltimore had an extensive streetcar system that connected neighborhoods and communities throughout the city. However, by the mid-20th century, the streetcars had been phased out in favor of buses and other forms of transportation.
Despite their disappearance, the legacy of Baltimore's streetcars still lives on in the memories of those who rode them and in the infrastructure that remains scattered throughout the city. In this video, we explore the forgotten history of Baltimore's streetcar system, from its origins to its decline, and uncover the stories of the people and communities that were impacted by this transportation revolution. Join us on a journey through time and rediscover the lost world of Baltimore's streetcars.
