A former Toronto Transit Commision 1951 PCC electric streetcar in downtown Kenosha Wisconsin. Saturday, June 17th 2000.

On Saturday, June 17th 2000, the city of Kenosha Wisconsin opened their "New" elctric streetcar line wich operates from the Metra commuter rail station to Harbor Park and return. I took this photo after the official ribbon cutting ceremony.

Kenosha discontinued electric streetcar operations originally in 1932.
The old system operated with single and double truck Birney safety streetcars.
The new line operated with five 1951 streamlined PCC cars from Canada's own
Toronto Transit Commision.
