The Tram Car Store to Open Second Location on the Wildwood Boardwalk

Big news for fans of Wildwood’s iconic yellow tramcars — The Tram Car Store is expanding!

Just one year after opening its first location at 21st Street and the boardwalk in North Wildwood, the popular shop is gearing up to open a second location for summer 2025.

The new store will be located at 5314 Boardwalk, in the shops under the Ocean Towers, and is set to open its doors Memorial Day Weekend 2025.

If you haven’t been to the original Tram Car Store yet, you’re missing out on one of the most unique and nostalgic merchandise spots on the Jersey Shore.

This place is a must for tram car lovers, packed with everything from towels, sandals, and boogie boards to magnets, drinkware, backpacks and those famous plushies that actually say, “Watch the Tramcar Please!”

And there is a tramcar plushie for everyone and in every size starting with small keychain tramcars one up to massive 2 foot long plush tramcars.

And that is just the short list of things they offer. They even have plush seagulls, beach toys, pins and you can buy tram car tickets (yes and use them on the tram car)

It’s quickly become a go-to destination for boardwalk visitors looking to bring home a piece of summer fun.

The Wildwood Video Archive stopped by this location last year and film a full tour video which you can watch the bottom of this article.

Behind the scenes is George Saleeb, the creative force behind the Tram Car Store. He’s been working on the Wildwood Boardwalk since 1999, and this expansion marks another exciting chapter in his boardwalk journey.

Saleeb not only created the Tram car plushie and store but also owns and operates several of the best shops on the boardwalk, including the St. George’s Stores.

The Tram Car Store’s new location is sure to be another hit, bringing the same fun and nostalgic vibe that fans have come to love.
