The National Museum of Transportation is proud to announce its participation in the Route 66 Trading Card Program, part of the nationwide celebration of the upcoming 100th Anniversary of Historic Route 66.

Route 66 Trading Cards are collectible keepsakes that highlight iconic landmarks and destinations along the legendary highway stretching from Chicago to Santa Monica. Designed to encourage exploration and storytelling, the cards offer visitors a fun way to create memories, celebrate the road’s rich history, and support the communities that keep Route 66 vibrant.

The initiative is led by the Route 66 Road Ahead Partnership, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to revitalizing Route 66 as both a treasured national icon and an international destination. Proceeds from card sales directly support these efforts, as well as the small businesses, museums, and nonprofits that participate in the program.

The National Museum of Transportation is especially honored to be the only tourist attraction in the St. Louis area participating in the program. The Museum’s exclusive card features Bobby Darin’s “Dream Car,” a one-of-a-kind custom vehicle designed by Andrew Di Dia and donated to the Museum in 1970. The car remains one of the Museum’s most distinctive and popular artifacts.

Trading cards are available for purchase at the Museum for $1 each through the end of the year.

Located at 2933 Barrett Station Road, Kirkwood, MO 63122, the National Museum of Transportation is open daily through Labor Day, with fall hours beginning thereafter.

I'm a 40-year-old father blessed with two wonderful children: a 13-year-old daughter and a 10-year-old son. My life revolves around my beautiful wife, who is the cornerstone of our family. Without her unwavering support, none of what I do would be possible. By day, I serve as a network administrator for a local school district, ensuring smooth operations in the realm of technology. During the evenings, you'll often find me engrossed in various creative pursuits, from illustrating books to crafting websites or composing music. But above all, my priority is spending quality time with my kids. Parenthood has been a profound journey of growth and discovery for me, and now, armed with a keyboard instead of a pen, I'm eager to share my experiences and insights with others.
