THE POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Excursion

Throw on your pajamas and hop aboard a real train to visit the North Pole. Get in the Christmas Spirit when a storyteller reads you the famous book, drink hot cocoa "as thick and rich as melted chocolate bars", sing carols with the Elves on board and visit with Mr. C himself.

Make lifetime family memories! Put on your favorite pair of pajamas and hop aboard THE POLAR EXPRESS^TM for a magical journey to the North Pole! The Dennison Depot offers the authentic POLAR EXPRESS^TM Train ride, sanctioned by Warner Brothers and Rail Events.

Join us for this family reenactment of the award-winning book, “THE POLAR EXPRESS^TM“, written by Chris Van Allsburg. Your adventure begins on board our decorated vintage coaches as Storytellers read the story aloud. As the train heads north toward the North Pole, festive elves will entertain you with songs, games, and activities. As you travel to the North Pole enjoy a delicious hot chocolate and cookie.

When the train arrives at the North Pole, you will see Santa and his workshop out your train window. (Passengers do not get off the train.) Our visit to the North Pole lasts long enough to pick up the most important person – Santa! Once onboard, Santa will visit with children and gift them all with a special jingle bell taken from his reindeer’s harness. When you hear the bell ring…you truly believe!
