The museum got its start in 1939 when a group of trolley enthusiasts got together to save car 31 of the Biddeford & Saco line after its last run. That car now forms the nucleus of the museum’s collection of more than 200 vehicles from around the world, about 50 of which have been restored by staff and volunteer craftsmen, who often make parts from scratch. Visitors can watch the work in progress from the gallery in the Restoration Shop.

The collection includes not just trolleys, but a sheriff’s bus (which carried prisoners from jail to court), a horsecar (a trolley pulled by a horse), a San Francisco cable car, a parlor car, a “Golden Chariot” (a tour trolley from Montreal), an elevated train and a commuter train, as well as work cars, from a trolley crane to a mail trolley to a snow sweeper.

The museum is situated on 300 acres, including a section of the original route of the old Atlantic Shoreline Railway. About 3 1/2 miles of track have been reset, over which the trolleys run.

The Seashore Trolley Museum is run by the New England Electric Railway Historical Society, a nonprofit, educational institution. For more information, contact the museum at P.O. Box A, Kennebunkport 04046-1690, telephone 967-2800.
