Who we are | Indiana Interurban & Streetcar Museum | Electric heritage Railroad
A nonprofit 501(c)(3) preserving and re-creating Indiana’s electric railway heritage with trolleys, people and stories that spark the imagination.
Our Mission
Hoosier Heartland Trolley Co. exists to spark imagination in people of all ages by bringing all walks of life together to experience the art, science, culture, technology and economic empowerment of Indiana’s world-renowned electric railway industry from the 20th century.
Our Vision
Hoosier Heartland Trolley Co. is energizing small town America by developing an electric heritage railroad to tell the story of Indiana’s development through the lens of the everyday Hoosiers who made it a reality. This will be an immersive experience set within the context of an existing, everyday Indiana town as a community-based, historic asset - creating opportunity as the electric railways themselves once did.
