Thanks to support from Ameren and the Illinois Corn Growers Association the trams at the Illinois State Fair will be making more stops this year.

The fair will have 2 trams running throughout the 11-day run of the fair offering free rides for all attendees with handicap accessibility. The trams will run continuously throughout the day.

The tram route and stops can be found on displays around the fairgrounds.
