Our volunteer trolley operators will guide you through the oldest suburban street railway in the U.S.A. - a National Historic District that opened on July 31, 1900, connecting New Haven with the Connecticut shore line.
Authentic Trolley Experience: Step into history as you ride on an authentic antique trolley car. Whether it's the yellow Connecticut Company trolley capturing old New Haven, the 1923 New Orleans Public Transit trolley, or the semi-open 1904 Brooklyn Rapid Transit trolley, your journey promises a unique experience. We regularly operate trolley cars from New Orleans and Johnstown PA, providing diverse rides depending on weather conditions.

If you're passionate about preservation, inquire about volunteering opportunities with your tour guide or ticket agent.
