From 1903 to 1932, electric rail was a regular mode of transportation in Kenosha. On June 17, 2000, streetcar transportation returned to our community. Most of Kenosha’s streetcars are authentic 1951 President’s Conference Committee (PCC) cars. Each Kenosha streetcar has a name and color scheme that represents the legacy of streetcar transportation in North America.
The Kenosha streetcars are available according to the published schedule on the city website.
