Polar Express Train Ride
Live the magic of the classic Polar Express Train Ride story with the Adirondack Scenic Railroad
Nov. 18th- Dec. 19th 2022: Live the magic of the classic Polar Express™ Train Ride story with the Adirondack Scenic Railroad. This trip is approximately 2 hours round trip. Depart from Utica’s Union Station and travel north while being served hot chocolate and cookies, interacting with Hot Chocolate Chefs, and listening to Liam Neeson’s reading of The POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Ride, by Chris van Allsburg. When you arrive at our North Pole (Holland Patent, NY), Santa will board the train, spending time with each and every family during the return trip and giving children the first present of Christmas (a silver bell, just like in the book or movie)!
For a first-class ride, travel to the North Pole in our Cocoa Class car! Mrs. Claus and our Hot Chocolate Chef will be the hostesses for you in our first-class car. Families will be served cookies and hot chocolate in souvenir mugs while being seated at table seating. Santa will visit with each and every family during the return trip.
Children (and parents!) are encouraged to come in pajamas. Don’t forget your camera - you’ll want to capture the memories of your time with Santa!
