Hop on a trolley shuttle to Highwood Carhouse to meet Daniel and Seashore's very own Biddeford & Saco trolley No. 31 to visit and take photos with Daniel and this special trolley car. Enjoy other activities around the museum campus, including Maine Public Television's fun activity tent and decorate your own Daniel Tiger sugar cookies. Guests can also visit the museum’s regular exhibits and displays, as well as ride longer trolley rides on the 3.5-mile heritage railway.
