Pennsylvania Trolley Museum (5/26/18)
Posted by chatanuga on Saturday, June 2, 2018 4:43 PM

On the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend, I went on what I called a Mister Rogers Road Trip.  The first stop on the trip was at the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum in Washington, Pennsylvania, which in a 1984 episode of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood had been the Arden Trolley Museum.  It was a fun time not only getting to see the preserved cars but to see them in operation and ride on them.

After the museum closed, I then headed to Latrobe to visit Unity Cemetery where Mister Rogers was laid to rest and then to the Hotel Saxonburg in Saxonburg for dinner, which was where in a 1982 episode of Mister Rogers Neighborhood we were taken to see a restaurant.  It was a fun trip, and I hope to make it over there again.
