Santa will be happy to have visitors take his picture, so make sure you remember to bring your camera.
Your camera will also come in handy when you stop by the museum’s large Lionel toy train layout. Enjoy the beautiful Christmas village of Department 56 collectible buildings. This beautiful display was donated and displayed in memory of Mary C. Brown by her twin granddaughters, Sara and Jessi Shoemaker. These beautiful porcelain buildings and accessories brought a lot of joy to Brown’s life and the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum is proud to continue her display tradition with their large Lionel toy train layout.
In the Museum’s event room, you will get to view the wonderful LEGO layout built by Steel City Lug, Pittsburgh Area’s Adult LEGO User Group.
