Winter Trolley 2025Nov 22, 2025 – Dec 21, 2025Pennsylvania Trolley MuseumOpenSetup, 4 standard Winter Trolley weekends (Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday) and tear-down on the 21st.
Created by Jonathan Wagner Overview Participation Cups [View Shifts] [Forum] [I-Spy] Shifts: 35 (Open 29, Locked 6)
Empty Shifts: 16
Participants: 14Total cups allotted (current signups): 94.5 I know we are just getting the Fall Trolley stuff together right now but wanted to get a jump on preparing for the Winter Trolley as well, specifically because I have a certain setup I will need some help with.
In case you didn’t see, one of the October releases was a Gingerbread AT-AT and I plan on getting 2 of them. I already have the big fig Santa and what I would like to put together is a Star Wars themed Santa Sleigh as part of the larger display. I’ll turn the big fig Santa into a Darth Vader Santa and his sleigh will be the UCS Landspeeder.
So since I will have 2 gingerbread AT-ATs, I would like to have other LUG members bring theirs if they have them/are able to bring them and were planning on getting one (don’t buy one just for this unless you want to). So we would need 6 or 7 more (if we want to have a Rudolph or not) and I’ll get some string lights as well to string them all together.
So if anyone can or would bring 1 for that part of the display, please let me know in this thread by tagging me. Also, use this for the general Winter Trolley display stuff.
@tcsbgdady Hoth will be showing at TUBS in November and then we can trade them to each other if that works for you.
Thanks so much for letting us use them all this time, they really have helped fill out the Empire.

Cool.
I told Johnathan he could take point on this as I have a lot on my plate at the moment. I am happy to contribute and help as much as I can. I’m willing to set up the Christmas tree farm as usual.
@laura so we know in advance, what are the expected dates for Winter Trolley?
So setup will be on November 22nd and 23rd with the event running through Thurs, Fri, Saturday and Sunday through the 21st of December.
Subbed. I have a ginger bread AT-AT on back order. If it comes in time It can be used for the display. I don’t have much Christmas I can contribute otherwise, but I am sure I can come up with something.

how about times?
Is it just me or are these events 2-3 deep anymore. First stop Friday, BAM sat, trolley sat and Sunday and sure I’m forgetting something. Think we are all still going to be recovering from
Tubs as well. We need some unpaid college interns to help. They can write a paper on the unground Lego world. lol.We unloaded from TUBS this morning. Everything is more or less right where it was after Fall Trolley, except that the tables are in front and the MILS crates are behind so you can set up without unpacking the whole room first.

Currently, I have 3 Gingerbread AT-ATs and should be getting 2 more on Tuesday. So that’s 5 total, if we could get 4 more donated, we could have the full sleigh! Please let me know!
@willmcdine bring anything at all and everything! Winter Trolley is like Fall, just whatever works and we make a display and Laura’s stuff fills in!
I’m out of town. I can send a email blast to everyone if you want that.
As an aside, and possible motivator, I’m going to start a separate thread ahead of Q4 on an idea I have to have paid events be able to buy a set or sets and have people who staff events get a raffle credit. Should help with the sustainability of sets if Lego takes that away. I’m thinking to start that with this event.
