Dino Trolley
August 10 - August 11
Join Seashore Trolley Museum for Dino Trolley, which will be held on Saturday/Sunday August 10th & 11th. The event will be held rain or shine (but every outdoor activity except for one will be relocated indoors if needed for comfort due to excess heat or water). Dinosaur-themed activities and trolley rides on our heritage railway; what a winner of an event this one is going to be!
Rides on the Dino Trolley depart from our Visitors Center at 9:45AM,10:30AM, 11:15AM, 12:00PM, 12:45PM, 1:30PM, 2:15PM and 3:00PM. Back at our Visitors Center and around our main campus we will have fun activities to enjoy!
To spread out our ticket sales, the starting time on your ticket is your Dino Trolley departure time. Be sure to arrive at least 15 minutes prior to make sure your group is ready to board. You are welcome to come earlier or stay later to enjoy the activities on campus! The museum will be open from 9:30AM-4:30PM.
Dino Trolleys will be decked out with safari/jungle themed decorations so guests and families can get in the mood!
Activities include:
Dino Quest! Search for colorful dinosaurs along your trolley ride. Twenty 2D cut-out dinosaurs will be hidden in the woods along our railway; see if you can spot them as the trolley goes by! Our trolley crew will slow down to give you time to spot them, as well as narrate the dino quest. Again, these are not robotic, non-moving dinosaurs. They don’t even have faces. We’re good at trolleys; not as good at art, but we think the dinosaurs are adorable and we love them, and we hope you will love them too. Please see pictures of the best looking dinosaurs in Kennebunkport, Maine on our ticket site so you know what to expect during this activity.
Dino Big Dig! Search for dinosaur bones hidden in Seashore’s very own archeological dig site! (it’s a big sand box, big enough for social distancing. This is the activity we won’t be able to move indoors if it rains, but it will be in a shaded area).
Dino Egg Hunt! Search for dinosaur eggs across campus! Redeem your eggs in the “craft room” for a prize! This is an ongoing activity and eggs will be replenished multiple times each day.
Let’s Explore Dinosaurs! A fun scavenger hunt across campus, learn more about different types of dinosaurs and stamp your dino passport along the way. Families with a fully stamped dino passport get to enter for a chance to win a free 2024-25 Family Membership to Seashore Trolley Museum!
Frozen Fossil! Snow cones with a dino gummy surprise at the bottom!
Craft Room! Make it at the event or take it home with you!
Photo Station! Take a photo with your group or family to remember the day at our dino-themed photo station.
Enjoy our Museum! Explore three carhouses filled with beautiful, restored trolleys and several other precious transit artifacts around our outdoor campus!
