Those with children might ride to let the cooling breezes and gentle motion of the streetcar lull a child to sleep. Experience Owl Service. Bring a date or bring the whole family. Bring a pillow. Bring a snack. Ride just once or ride all night. Single ride Fare is $2. An unlimited ride Owl Pass is just $5. Children 3 and under are free.
