Father’s Day Saturday Guest Motorman Experience at Shore Line Trolley Museum

Celebrate Father’s Day weekend with a one-of-a-kind adventure at the Shore Line Trolley Museum on Saturday, June 14, from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm, and Sunday, June 15 from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm, guests can take part in the exclusive Guest Motorman Experience—a private, hands-on opportunity to operate an authentic trolley car on the museum’s historic tracks.

Participants will receive a brief but thorough lesson in trolley operation from a knowledgeable museum conductor before taking the controls themselves. Each one-hour session allows one guest to operate the trolley while bringing along up to five friends or family members to enjoy the ride. This memorable experience includes operating the controller, sounding the bell, and navigating the museum’s scenic line along the Farm River.

Ideal for history enthusiasts, trolley fans, and anyone looking for a unique way to celebrate Father’s Day weekend, this experience is available by advance reservation only. Space is limited.

The Shore Line Trolley Museum is located at 17 River Street, East Haven, Connecticut. Tickets must be reserved in advance online or by calling 203-467-6927. For more details or to reserve a spot, visit shorelinetrolley.org.
