About
From November 14 through December 21, families board this two-hour holiday train ride from Union Station in Utica for a full Polar Express experience... hot chocolate, cookies, caroling, and a visit from Santa himself who hands out the first gift of Christmas. Kids are encouraged to wear pajamas, and the ride follows the storybook perfectly, making it a hit for younger kids. Tickets sell out early, so book ahead and plan to arrive about an hour before departure.
