This is a great place to take kids. They learn about electric powered public transit and that it's not a new concept. We especially enjoyed taking the kids on the Christmas Night time ride with Santa aboard and also at the station. Not sure if this happens any longer but it's worth every penny of admission. This volunteer driven museum shows a variety of electric powered streetcars and vehicles that served the area many years ago. You can tour the garage barns where they restore these machines and see them in action by taking the short route through the woods and back to the station. Cars are changed for service periodically so you should pay them a visit more than once if possible.
Really enjoyed our visit here. It was a nice change from all of the very busy attractions in Toronto. Only one suggestion: Recommend getting nut-free ice cream. It's such an easy thing to accommodate for those children who have nut allergies.
We had a blast with my 5 and 2 year old here. The train ride was comfortable and scenic. Love how they decorated an old street car into an ice cream shop. Folks here are very friendly and passionate about their job. Comfortable cafeteria with a train table to keep little ones entertained while we enjoy our $5 hot dog meal which includes drink and chips
This is an excellent small-scale Trolley Museum just south of Guelph Ontario. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. The displays that they have are great reminder from the past trolley experience people of Toronto and other cities got to enjoy. Their effort to restore and recondition these trolleys on a volunteer basis speaks of the love these people have for these vehicles. The woodwork and cushions on the seats speak highly of the great Craftsman that built these machines years ago. You can spend several hours here and enjoy both the small trolley ride and visit the car barns and view some of the great trolleys that they have.
This place has been doing a great job maintaining historical street cars and trains for decades. I have great memories of riding the trains there as a child, and now I have an opportunity to share that experience with my own son. I am happy to support the museum in the hopes that they can keep up the good work for years to come!
