Guest Motorman Experience at Shore Line Trolley MuseumStep up to the controller and experience what it truly means to operate a historic electric trolley or subway car.
The Guest Motorman Experience at Shore Line Trolley Museum offers a rare opportunity to take the controls under the supervision of our qualified operating staff. This private, one-hour session provides hands-on instruction and authentic operating time along our historic line beside the Farm River.
Your Private Session Includes:
A structured orientation covering basic trolley operation, safety procedures, and signaling.
Supervised hands-on operation of a historic electric railway car.
Time on the line applying controller use (power), braking technique, and proper bell and whistle use.
The opportunity to bring up to five guests to ride along and observe your experience.
This is not a simulator. You will operate a preserved piece of electric railway history on the oldest continuously operating suburban trolley line in the United States.
Whether you are a transportation enthusiast, a lifelong railfan, marking a milestone occasion, or simply seeking a distinctive experience, the Guest Motorman program connects you directly with the technology that shaped modern public transportation.
Advance reservations are required. Sessions are limited to ensure a safe and meaningful experience.
