<< ALL blogs

Alllllll aboard! Don your Christmas jammies and hold tight your golden ticket, it’s time to take a ride to the North Pole!

Experience holiday magic like never before as you chug your way out of Buzzards Bay Depot on the Polar Express. With train cars decked in Christmas decorations and merry train attendants dressed as elves, the Cape Cod Central Railroad looks every part of author Chris Van Allsburg’s fictional wonderland. Set to the sounds of the motion picture soundtrack, passengers will relive the magic of the classic story as they are whisked away for a one and a half hour round trip to meet Santa. Onboard, conductors will punch each child’s golden tickets while dancing chefs and waiters perform Christmas carols. Expect freshly baked, individually wrapped cookies and hot chocolate to keep you warm along the way. Gather round the windows to look at the incredible sights and be sure to make your list for Santa! It’s a treat for everyone in the family and one of our favorite traditions on the Cape. Order your tickets online today before they sell out!
