MBTA Releases New Collectible CharlieCards: Five Landmark Designs Debut Oct. 23
On October 23, 2026, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) released a new round of special-edition collectible CharlieCards in five designs: the Massachusetts State House, the Bunker Hill Monument, the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum, the Old State House and TD Garden.
The release follows three commemorative cards issued in the summer of 2026 and was produced jointly by the MBTA's customer experience team and its fare department. Phillip Eng, the MBTA's general manager and the state's interim transportation secretary, said riding the T is part of Boston life and one of the best ways to see Massachusetts, and that the landmarks on the new cards remind people of the city's charm and long history.
The collectible cards are available through MBTA channels, with more information at mbta.com and on the MBTA's social media accounts. The CharlieCard is the MBTA's contactless fare card, and limited landmark editions are popular with local commuters and collectors.
