well the transformer is in and they will be powering up the lines again this week coming up (June 7th via the 10th). If everything is normal then the trolleys could start running again as soon as this week coming up (June 7th via the 10th) no schedule has been posted yet at the trolley station(s)

Well its Memorial Day weekend and the trolleys were not running. I guess they never got the transformer fixed in time. I have know idea when they will be up and running again. The only good news is, is that they took down the sign saying that "the trolleys last day was Sunday November 30th and ...

well i have been told that the trolleys should be up in running by Memorial Day weekend if all goes well. It is still not 100% that they well be up and running but that's what they are pushing for. The coast to fix the transformer is $25,000

I just found out that the Lowell trolleys have been held off on the 2004 operating season because the transformer that powers the trolleys has FRIED. It is going to take 6 to 8 weeks to fix. The Trolleys should be up and running sometime in May. Normally the Trolleys operate March - November. The tr...

Conway Scenic is a great RR however at this time they just opened up for the 2004 season and they are only operating on the weekends another big miss out for this time of year is the Crawford Notch train, that train doesn't start operating until mid-June and operates T-W-Th and Sat from mid-June via...
