Activities All Week Long

Trolley Rides • Take a trolley ride operated by period dressed motormen on a trolley car dating back to the early 1900’s. Learn historic information about the collection and how the Museum began.

Trolley Experiences • Get up close and personal as you climb aboard selected trolleys from the Museum’s incredible collection in the Visitors Center. From city streetcars to interurban cars this is your chance to take the controllers and let your imagination “operate”.
