Spaghetti Warehouse Trolley Rescue & Restoration Project

The Spaghetti Warehouse Trolley’s Next Chapter Begins!

For decades, the Spaghetti Warehouse trolley was more than just a dining experience—it was a beloved piece of Columbus history, a place where families made memories, and a reminder of our city’s rich industrial and transportation past. When we learned it was at risk of being lost forever, we knew we had to act. Thanks to an outpouring of support from history lovers like you, we did just that!

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED—BUT THE WORK IS JUST BEGINNING!

With your help, we successfully secured, moved, and safely stored the trolley, ensuring it will live on as an essential piece of our city’s story. This was no small feat—it required careful planning, expert coordination, and significant resources to lift and transport this massive structure to safety.

Now, we need everyone’s help to move forward with the next critical phase:

~Restoration & Preservation – The trolley needs extensive work to ensure its longevity. We are working with preservation experts to determine the best course of action.

~ A Permanent Home – Our vision is to place the trolley where it can be experienced, explored, and appreciated by all, becoming a centerpiece for education and community engagement.

~Community Involvement – This is not just about saving an artifact; it’s about preserving our shared history and making it accessible to future generations.
