Enjoy the colors of an upstate autumn from the windows of a vintage electric trolley car at the New York Museum of Transportation in Rush. Rides operate Sundays only, through October 27. No reservations are required, as rides leave throughout the day and are included free with admission to the museum. Museum hours are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., and the last trolley departure is at 4 p.m.
While the rides are a highlight for visitors, large model railroads, numerous full-size trolley cars, a steam locomotive, antique trucks and cars, horse-drawn vehicles, and smaller artifacts provide a rich, hands-on experience that appeals to kids and older folks alike. New this year is an exhibit featuring the Midtown Plaza Monorail.
The New York Museum of Transportation is located at 6393 East River Road. Admission is $8 adults, $7 seniors over 65, and $6 youths age 3 through 12. For information, call 533-1113 or visit www.nymtmuseum.org.
