Have you ever taken your kids on a holiday train ride? This year, we took ours to the The Saratoga & North Creek Railway THE POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Ride. The magical story comes to life when the train departs Saratoga Springs for a one hour round-trip journey to the North Pole.  It’s an adorable way to celebrate the season (and if the kids have not seen the movie or read the book yet, make sure they do before you head out).  Make sure you wear your PJ’s for this ride!

Set to the sounds of the motion picture soundtrack, passengers will relive the magic of the story as they are whisked away on THE POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Ride. Once onboard, cheerful, dancing chefs serve passengers hot chocolate and cookies while they read along with the classic children’s book, The Polar Express, by Chris Van Allsburg. Santa and his helpers greet passengers at the North Pole and then board the train, where each child is given the first gift of Christmas – a silver sleigh bell. Chefs aboard each car lead passengers in singing Christmas carols on the ride back to Saratoga Springs.

The chefs really dance and sing when they deliver the hot chocolate and cookies, it’s quite cute. Other fun favorites show up as well (such as your friendly, mandatory Hobo) and the Conductor punches your child’s tickets, just like in the movie.  Of course, you and your kids will have the chance to meet the big guy himself, Santa, who pays a visit on every train ride.

The Saratoga and North Creek Railway has other fun events and train rides year round. You can find out what is being offered and when by visiting www.SNCRR.com/the-polarexpress-train-ride or calling 877-726-7245.
