Special Events for the 2009 Season:

May 2 - Opening Day
After a long winter of restorations and working on a number of projects, we open our doors to visitors for unlimited streetcar rides and special tours.

June 21 – Father’s Day Special
Bring your dad to the streetcar museum for unlimited streetcar rides, explore the display barns and view our workcar equipment. Find out how the rail lines were maintained way back when, and in some cases still are today.

July 11 & August 8 - Ice Cream & Starlight - 7:00 p.m.-11:00 p.m.
Visitors are romanced under the stars and lights during this popular event as they ride the rails and enjoy hand-scooped ice cream.

September 19 – Roaring 20s Fall Picnic and Mississauga Amateur Radio Club
Our new event was so successful we’re bringing it back this year. Come out and enjoy a live band, activities for the kids, unlimited rides and more.

October 17 & 24 - Halloween Spooktacular - 6:30 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.
Walk through the haunted car barn and subway cars and travel in the old, creaky streetcars along the mainline. If you’re a Halloween person this is definitely a spooky experience not to be missed! Buy your tickets now!

NEW! December 5 & 12 Christmas on the Rails – 1:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.
Ride into the holiday season with us! Back by popular demand, we’re opening our doors one last time until the spring for a unique seasonal experience. There’s nothing like riding the rails through the woods with snow on the trees and singing Christmas carols.

NEW! March 13-21 - March Trolley Madness
Ride the streetcars this March Break! For the first time the museum will be open in March. Bring your family and friends and join us for this exclusive event.
