Santa At The Shore Line Trolley Museum
December 12, December 20
Santa is doing things a little differently this year but he is still spending time with us at The Shore Line Trolley Museum. Come and take a ride to visit Santa on his special trolley car which he’s set up for social distancing. Wave “Hi” and grab your holiday photos! Santa’s elves will be standing by to make sure every child gets their free gift. Walk through our decorated trolley barns and take a ride on a real antique trolley car. Our station and trolley yard will be decorated for the holidays so there are plenty of photo ops.
