Visitors experience History in Motion at the world’s first and largest electric railway museum, riding in restored antique electric trolleys on the very right of way used by the Atlantic Shore Line Railway from 1904 to 1927.
Guests are surprised and delighted to discover streetcars from almost every major U.S. city that had trolley service as well as vehicles from every corner of the globe. History, transportation, antiques, restoration, technology, beautiful objects, fine craftsmanship, the great Maine outdoors ... Seashore Trolley Museum is as entertaining as it is informative!
