Molly the Trolley was a trolley themed bus that carries guests between Adventureland, the Adventureland Inn and the Adventureland Campground. There were at least two Mollys. Does anyone know how many there were? The park also used a white van with "Adventureland Shuttle" on the side.
On busier days, a regular Adventureland Inn van also seems to be used.
There is a covered waiting area outside the main entrance to the park, and at the Inn, it parks outside the main entrance near Spectators Sports Bar and Grill.
I was told you need to have a hotel arm band to ride the trolley, but the drivers may pick you up if you are wanting to go over to Spectators for a bite to eat (or drink).
In 2026, we found out that Charters on Vine had purchased the trolley so it looks like we have seen the last of this Molly at the park.
Trivia
There have been three Molly's associated with the park. There was an early mascot Molly Mouse, Molly the Trolley, and current park spokesperson Molly Vincent (daughter of park founder Jack Krantz). Which came first? Molly (spokesperson, not the mouse or trolley) says she was here first ;-) Molly Mouse could not be reached for comments.
