Sunday, June 27, 2021, from 11 am to 4 pm at the New York Museum of Transportation, 6393 East River Road, just one mile north of Rt. 251 (exit 11 off I-390).
The New York Museum of Transportation, in Rush, will be offering trolley rides included with museum admission on Sunday, June 27.

The scenic two-mile round trip ride aboard the vintage electric trolley car harks back to the interurban era of a century ago. Back then, fast, clean transportation on luxurious trolleys was offered between Rochester and distant cities such as Buffalo, Syracuse and Geneva.
In the museum there are several such trolley cars on display as well as a steam locomotive, the Midtown Plaza Monorail, highway and horse drawn vehicles, three model railroads, and numerous interesting exhibits. The museum gallery features a 10-minute video about the Rochester Subway, and the gift shop caters to the needs of all ages.
The New York Museum of Transportation is located just 20 minutes south of Rochester at 6393 East River Road in Rush, one mile north of Rt. 251 (I-390 exit 11). www.nymtmuseum.org info@nymtmuseum.org (585) 533-1113
