Forest City Queen and Trolley Car 36
All aboard! Departing from downtown Rockford, by rail and by "sail" you will discover interesting tidbits about the early history of our community by enjoying a ride on the Track Trolley or the Forest City Queen riverboat. Both Trolley Car 36 and the Forest City Queen are completely wheelchair accessible, but Trolley Car 36 is limited to two full size wheelchairs per ride. Special classroom outings are offered in the Spring for the Trolley and/or Forest City Queen.
Forest City Queen Riverboat
The Forest City Queen gives you an up close and personal glimpse of some of the most stately homes gracing the banks of the Rock River. You will hear about Rockford's humble beginnings on the Rock River and its continuing influence today. A variety of cruise options are available, from hourly narration tours, private rentals, family-style picnics, Ski Broncs performances, to elegant dining.
Trolley Car 36
The newly refurbished Trolley Car 36 makes its way from the Trolley Station in Riverview Park along Madison Street, beside the scenic Rock River Recreation Path, makes a stop for a brief visit to Sinnissippi Gardens, then turns around at symbol and returns to the Trolley Station. Trolley Car 36 is also available for private rentals.
