Scenic Loop is a neighborhood with character, and two homes built around abandoned train cars and a streetcar, are nostalgic proof.

– Nestled among the pecan trees, two Scenic Loop homes boast treasures that are off the rails. One conceals an old San Antonio streetcar, and the other stops passersby in their tracks.

They’re a curious sight because trains don’t even run through the neighborhood. Two entrepreneurs brought them to the property back in the late 1980s, according to Robare.Robare bought the acreage and the trains a few years ago, but his fascination with the railcars goes way back. The house was built two decades later and is actually attached to the streetcar, now a room with a nostalgic groove.Rich wood, antique glass with visible waves, and even the push buttons to request a stop remain. It’s like stepping back in time, back to the early 1900s.
