Located on West Mountain Avenue, the Fort Collins Municipal Railway is a historic railway that runs a restored streetcar on summer weekend afternoons between City Park and Howes Street in downtown Fort Collins. An all-volunteer organization operates the 30-minute ride on Birney Car 21, which is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. If you are wondering what to do in Fort Collins with kids, this is a great way to get around the city and see the sights.

The original streetcar service ran from 1919 until 1951, and the heritage streetcar service commenced operations in 1984 after the track and Birney Car 21 had been restored. Several additional cars have been restored and put into service since then. The streetcars run on Saturday and Sundays from May through September.
