National Capital Trolley Museum


Now, here's a treat kids should love: a trolley car museum. Was that a yawn? Well, not only do you get to see exhibits of the trolley car era gone by, but you get to actually ride different vintaged models! There's also a miniature working trolley model on display in the museum. And, they've recently renovated their facilities. From the pictures, it seems their facilities have vastly improved over what they were since I was there last. Oh, and don't forget to bring cash for the gift shop. No trip to a museum is complete without a stop there!

A Day Out With Thomas










Thomas the Tank Engine returns to the B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore Friday through Sunday, April 23 - 25 and April 30 - May 2, 2010. I'd buy tickets as soon as you can! These events always seem to fill up fast. Tickets are $18.00 each and are required for guests ages two and up. Advance purchase is recommended. For more information about the Day Out With Thomas™ event, call the B&O Railroad Museum at 410-752-2490 or go to the official website.
