The New York Museum of Transportation, in Rush, celebrating its 50th anniversary and featuring the only vintage trolley ride in New York State, will hold its season opening on Sunday, May 28, 11 a.m to 4 p.m.
The museum houses a collection of 14 trolley cars, several highway and horse-drawn vehicles, three model railroads, the Midtown Plaza Monorail, and numerous exhibits celebrating the transportation history of the area. In the gallery a video presents the Rochester Subway in color, and a gift shop caters to the needs of all ages and interests.
Trolley rides are included with admission. Visitors experience the interurban era of a century ago as their trolley car winds its way on a 20-minute round trip through scenic countryside. The air whistle and the clickety-clack on the rails bring back a time when trolley cars provided fast, clean service connecting upstate New York cities.
All at the same family friendly admission prices!
$10 adults, $9 seniors 65+, and $6 youths age 3 – 12.
The museum is open Sundays only 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and is located just 20 minutes south of Rochester at 6393 East River Road, Rush.
