The National Streetcar Museum at Lowell is open weekends all year round and provides an opportunity for individuals and families to learn more about trolley cars as a mode of mass transportation through displays, interactive exhibits and hands-on play. The Museum is operated by the curator, Seashore Trolley Museum member Paul Castiglione, along with other Seashore volunteers and, at times, student interns supported by the National Park Service. Additional volunteers are needed, particularly on Sundays, to keep the Museum supported at the proper level for the safety and convenience of our visitors. Minimal training is required and will be provided by the curator who will certainly appreciate the assistance of additional volunteers. For more information on how you might help, please contact Paul at trainfan849@verizon.net. Better yet, stop by the Museum at 25 Shattuck Street, Lowell, MA, talk with Paul and see for yourself what a great place this is.
