PUMPKIN PATCH TROLLEY WEEK-END AT THE SEASHORE TROLLEY MUSEUM
SATURDAY & SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 29th & 30th
KENNEBUNKPORT, ME - The third annual Pumpkin Patch Trolley Days will be held Saturday and Sunday, September 29th and 30th at The Seashore Trolley Museum on Log Cabin Road. The Museum will provide trips in antique electric streetcars to Meserve's Crossing on the old Atlantic Shore Line Railway route. Once there, Museum patrons may pick their own pumpkins. One pumpkin will be available free for each paid admission.
Electric streetcar rides to the "pumpkin patch" will run on the hour from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. In keeping with tradition, Museum visitors will be given a "baggage claim check" to transport their pumpkin back to the station. Visitors then continue their ride through the Maine woods to Talbott Park, the end of the line, and at the end of their Museum visit, they pick up their pumpkins at the Visitor's Center.
Museum Hours: 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. Admission: Adults $7.25; Seniors $5.25; Children ages 6-16 $4.75; Children under 6 FREE.
