Have you always wanted to get behind the controllers and operate a trolley? Connecticut Trolley Museum is in the process of recruiting new volunteer operators (age 18+) and junior operators (15-18). Training will start on Saturday March 16, 2024 with additional training days scheduled with our instructors at your convenience. No previous experience is required! The session will cover the mechanical aspects of trolley car operations and railway rules. We do ask if you complete the course that you can commit to volunteering at least twice a month during the operating season and become a Trolley Museum member.

The Bell Bottom Blues -The True Eric Clapton Experience
The Bell Bottom Blues was formed in 2007 with the vision of providing an audience with a True Eric Clapton Experience. Through its evolution the band has been carefully constructed to create the essence of the Clapton sound, from his Guitar arrangements to his distinctive Vocal sound. This is what separates The Bell Bottom Blues from all others and makes us Unique in the market. We have been told time and time again by our Audiences and Fans that “they close their eyes during a show and could swear that they were actually at a Clapton concert. This is what we actually set out to achieve. Through each band members dedication, professionalism and hard work we have captured the sound and essence of the Master himself through his various stages, from Cream, the Dominoes through his entire solo career. Our EC, has captured his guitar styling and more importantly his exact vocal sound, which allows us to truly pay “Tribute” to this Rock and Blues Icon. Once again, our goal is to perform and allow our audiences to really feel like they are participating in an actual EC live event. There is No better satisfaction for us than seeing this actually occur and knowing we have achieved our goal. We have recently been endorsed by Bobby Whitlock, founder of Derek & The Dominos & Co writer with Clapton on the Layla Album.
