How
many people can ride on a chartered trolley?
It depends on the size of the trolley. We recommend between 32
and 35 passengers per car.
How many drinks does an M-Line cooler hold?
Approximately
24 standard 12 oz. cans.
Where
is the best place to park?
For most charters we suggest
parking near our Uptown Station on Cityplace West Blvd or on an adjacent cross
street. This location can be accessed by autos or your guests can arrive via DART
rail.
Where is the car barn?
Our
Car Barn is located at 3153 Oak Grove Ave Dallas, TX 75204.
What does the M-Line consider "after hours?"
Any
Charter time beyond 10:00 p.m. is considered after hours and will be billed at
$200.00 per hour.
Are
alcoholic drinks allowed during a charter?
Alcoholic
drinks may be provided by the charter host on a BYOB basis, but M-Line personnel
are prohibited from loading or handling these.
How
big are the tables on the trolleys?
Tables between
the seats are available for children's charters only and are approximately 30"
x 24." Buffet tables are available for both Adult and children's parties
and are approximately 6' x 24"
Can
I bring an animal on board?
Under
normal circumstances the M-Line is pet friendly, however the animal must be well
behaved and on a leash or otherwise under your control. As always, service animals
are welcome.
Can
we charter more than one trolley at a time?
Due
to service commitments we are typically limited to chartering only one trolley
at a time.
Can the trolley wait for us
if we want to get off for a few minutes?
Because
our trolleys operate on city streets we are unable to stop in the street and wait.
Additionally, other trolleys operating on a regular schedule need to come and
go so we cannot wait in one place and block the track. However, we are able to
hold at each end of the line: End of Cityplace West Blvd (Uptown Station) or St.
Paul and Ross Ave (St. Paul Terminal).
Can we bring
music on board?
Yes,
but music must be battery operated and self contained.
Are
the trolleys heated and air conditioned?
All of our
trolleys are heated. With the exception of car 122 (Rosie), all M-Line trolleys
are air conditioned.
Do the trolleys run
in bad weather?
The trolleys run in all kinds of
weather but can be subject to service delays if our power from TXU is interrupted
by a storm or otherwise.
