Thanks to You Tube videos, one can re-live the glory days of street cars in Washington, DC. This was posted on a Facebook group called Bethesda Chevy Chase Back In The Day

This short 16 mm film was discovered by Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 689 recently and converted. It appears to be shot in the early to mid 1950s.
