My mom and dad met in D.C. in 1945. He was an airline pilot and she worked for the airlines. Amazing to see the world they lived in at that time.

[@williamscoggin1509]

Reminds me of my parents story. Both were from East Texas and met in Colorado. Dad was an orderly at the state mental institution and Mom was a waitress at the cafe across the street. 🙂👍🏻

[@WAL_DC-6B]

Note that the Washington D.C. (Capital Transit Co.) electric street cars drew their 600 V dc power from a slot between the rails when they ran in the "downtown" area of the nation's capital (this avoided the clutter of overhead electric wires). Capital Transit purchased their first PCC streetcars (streamlined ones seen running in this film) in 1937. Streetcar service came to an end in Washington D.C. on January 28, 1962. Thanks for sharing!

[@user-qd6qo2sq1w]

and that was not dangerous for people ?

[@WAL_DC-6B]

@@user-qd6qo2sq1w To be sure, it would have been dangerous if someone intentionally put their hand, if they could (you can see the slot is quite narrow), down into the slot to complete a circuit through their body. This practice of electric traction supply was seldom used elsewhere in the U.S.

[@sfeddie1]

Thanks for clearing that up. At first I thought they were cable cars like those in San Francisco because of the slot between the rails. But that didn’t make sense because of the trolley on top of the streetcars that could be used for overhead electric connection. Also the length of a cable system didn’t seem practical to me. I remember when S.F. got its streamliner streetcars, but of course they used the overhead trolly system as they still do today.

[@1940limited]

I was wondering whee the trolleys got their power from and though it might be that slot between the tracks. Thanks for clearing that up.

[@luislaplume8261]

@@WAL_DC-6B The same was true for NYC in Manhattan for the New York Railways and the 3rd Avenue Railway. In upper Manhattan near the Bronx they pulled up the trolley poles for the overhead wires in front of the bridges. The center rail system ended in 1947, and the Railway was renamed to the 3rd Avenue surface lines.

0:13 What looks like two Capitol Transit single-end PCC cars passing the camera in the opposite direction definitely make this 1939 on forward. Note that although the cars are equipped with overhead trolley poles, here within city limits they rely on a conduit rail located between the running rails for their power (No catenary to spoil the city's aesthetics.) 0:43 This double-end car also has its poles down. Edit: Should have written, "...make this 1936 on forward." Apologies for the typo.

Right down the middle of the Nation’s Main Street Pennsylvania Avenue. Too bad they demolished the old Raleigh Hotel in the mid to late 1960’s which comes into view at 3:45 on the left above the tree with the domed roof. It’s across from the old Post Office that became a mall circa 1990’s and then Trump’s Hotel the past eight, ten years or so. The columns of the beautiful Willard Hotel which still stands are on the left before the streetcar turns. Great video of the U.S. Capital and wish it showed more from about 1938.

From about the 2:00 minute mark (for about nine seconds), you can see, on the right side, the steel frame of the National Gallery of Art Building being erected (what is now known as the West Building). The National Gallery of Art opened in March of 1941. So, if this footage is from the 1940s, it must be from the very early 40s at that...when construction of the National Gallery of Art was in progress.

I’m of the belief this is the Spring or Summer of 1937. The license plates have a dark background and the District of Columbia’s plates for that year were school bus yellow on black for 1937. In the film, it reflects white on the plates. Nice beginning from the West Front side with the Capitol in the background. I wish the one filming had kept rolling as one sees the Treasury Building with the columns and looks as if they continue to drive toward The Ellipse along the South Lawn of the White House if they turned the camera. Sadly, they closed that off to traffic after 9/11. It provided a great view of the White House for anyone visiting the small but beautiful city.

Ike cleaned that sh!t up. Then we had more closet racist Dems like JFK who was openly racist against Sammy Davis Jr. especially when Sammy married a white swedish actress. Its all in Frank Sinatra's Bio. He and Sammy were like brothers. Frank kicked Kennedy's freindship to the curb because he didn't like the way Sammy was treated. Fast forward to racist LBJ. He got smart and took full advantage of the shift of the black vote to Dems when he enacted the welfare programs. "Give those N%^rs welfare and we will have them voting Dem for the next 200 years" -LBJ. Smart move if you are a racist as the laws put in place for welfare were "No Male Head of Household".

A cada video do Nass que assisto, dedico total atenção e admiração de uma época que não era a minha....mas que adoraria poder ter vivido ao menos alguns dias !! Porquê não inventam logo uma maquina do tempo ?? 😂😂
