Item Description
All aboard!
You and 5 guests will learn about the history of transit at the world’s first museum of its kind in historic, Kennebunkport, Maine!
Take a ride on our heritage railroad in a vintage trolley from the early 1900s. Explore three carhouses filled with beautiful, restored trolleys and several other precious transit artifacts around our outdoor campus. Our world-renowned collection includes vehicles from almost every major city in the United States that had streetcar systems, as well as from across the world. From the omnibus, to electric streetcars, buses, light rail vehicles, and rapid transit cars, we’ve got them all.
Visit our Restoration Shop where you can view many cars in the process of maintenance or comprehensive restoration.
These vehicles tell an epic story. That story is about cities and towns across our nation and abroad. It’s about individual lives expanding and it’s about leisure and work. It’s about how technological advancements are recognized. It represents the rise and fall and resurgence of the streetcar industry. The collection demonstrates how the past informs the present and guides the future. It offers tangible examples of craftsmanship and hard work and core values. It is evidence of the importance of preserving and restoring artifacts that bring history to life.
Because dogs are part of the family, we are dog-friendly.
