New York Museum of Transportation Holly Trolly Rides

The New York Museum of Transportation has Holly Trolly Rides , on November 27/28, December 4/5, 11/12, 18/19 (Saturdays and Sundays).

Museum visitors can enjoy a ride on an authentic 80 year-old electric trolley car, recalling another time when families rode the big interurban trolleys from their rural homes to do their holiday shopping in the city. Also, nothing says Christmas like model trains, and the museum’s large model railroad will be running five trains at once.

Located at 6393 East River Road, in the Rochester suburb of Rush, the New York Museum of Transportation is open all year on Sundays only, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The museum’s exhibit spaces feature a collection of antique trolley cars, a steam locomotive, fire truck, ambulance, operating model railroad, many other vehicles, and numerous exhibits of photographs and artifacts pertaining to local transportation history.

The mission of the New York Museum of Transportation is to collect, preserve, display, interpret, and operate artifacts and information from the transportation history of Upstate New York and surrounding area, to delight, inform and educate our visitors about their transportation heritage.
