Fox River Trolley Museum
About Fox River Trolley Museum
The Fox River Trolley Museum is a great place for the whole family - EDUCATION THROUGH DEMONSTRATION and FUN! There are now two destinations - The Jon Duerr (Blackhawk) Forest Preserve and Castlemuir in South Elgin. The Jon Duerr (Blackhawk) Forest Preserve line opened in June 2002 is a new way to observe and enjoy nature as well as offering a nostalgic trip back to an era when electric trolley cars were part of everyday life.

It's a pleasant and inexpensive experience for kids and train buffs. All volunteers, with all that means for service.Don't trust their web site for times open.Muddy parking lot.

We found this place by mistake, when we were cruising down Route 31. Overall I am really glad that I turned around. For $4 I had a chance to ride a vintage trolley through some beautiful sceneries near the Fox River. If you are in the area, definitely stop and check it out!!!

Terror trolley Theydosecialevents on some major holidays which are generally fun. OrOur kidswerescaredtogitotheterror trolley but we're laughing when they left. My daughter called it lame and wanted tigetourmoneyback. The story teller tried really hard to tell scary stories but was really a lame duck and should fave been cooked. Wewalkedinthedark woods which could have been really scary but most came out laughing or wanted their Money back. The alleged monsters sounded like drunk teenagers and made most people mad or laugh. I hope if they do a terror trolley again it will actually be scary and get a better story teller. They should hire the ww2 actors and shoot zombies or something. And oleasegetsomequality cookies for the polar express, otherwise I really like the place.
