Santa may still use reindeer power, but sometimes he joins you to enjoy a ride on our authentic 89-year-old electric trolley car, recalling another time when families rode trolleys from their rural homes to do their holiday shopping in the city. The museum will be decorated for the holiday.  Also, nothing says Christmas like model trains.  The museum’s large model railroad will be running three trains at once!

The New York Museum of Transportation is open year ’round, Sundays only, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Group visits on weekdays can be made by appointment. Train rides are offered on the only electric trolley operation in New York State. In the museum a variety of trolleys, a steam locomotive, and road vehicles on display provide a unique hands-on learning experience for all ages. A large model railroad, gallery, and gift shop are also featured. The museum is located at 6393 East River Road, W. Henrietta, NY. For details: (585) 533-1113 or info@nymtmuseum.org.
