Pennsylvania Trolley Museum
For old and young, we're tons of fun!
The Pennsylvania Trolley Museum began in 1954 with three trolleys and a dream. Today, that dream is a reality. We now display a collection of more than 50 cars with over a dozen in operating order, have over 180 regular volunteers, and receive over 30,000+ visitors each year. With your support, we can continue to fulfill our mission to keep the Trolley Era alive for generations to come.
More than a ride... it's an experience!
