There Santa will board the train and greet the children, each receiving their own jingle bell just as in the story. Hot chocolate and cookies will be served by costumed staff while guests enjoy a live reading and carols. The Polar Express train will run Nov. 28-30, and again Dec. 5-6, 12-13, 24 and 31.

Reservations are recommended for these trains as they generally sell out.
