Night Before Christmas Story Experience
This very special train recreates the excitement and anticipation of Christmas Eve. Clement Clarke Moore’s classic poem, “The Night Before Christmas,” comes alive as the train rolls along. Each train car has its own professional reader/performer to entrain on the train ride.
All guests receive complimentary milk and a cookie. Additional snacks and drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) are available to purchase aboard the FIRST CLASS cars.
Please note: This is a Night Before Christmas performance train with individual performers on each car.
