With the recent extension of the museum trolley line, visitors now can enjoy a unique ride experience with a 2-mile round trip interurban trolley excursion that connects to a diesel train on this special day. The combined ride links the New York Museum of Transportation with the Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad Museum's country depot and railroad equipment collection. The trolley portion of the ride is the only such operation in New York State, and the diesel train ride adds a special thrill for railfans young and old. The diesel connection will operate on special event days this summer. On other Sundays, authentic track cars that once served "gandy dancers" connect with the trolley. No reservations needed. Come out and visit the only two railroad museums in America linked by their own private railroad! Trips run rain or shine, hope to see you soon!
Museum opens May 17 with train and trolley rides
