Description
Climb aboard the open-air Coach Class on the Florida Railroad Museum’s North Pole Express and experience Christmas the classic way. This 3.5-hour holiday adventure begins with a 35-minute train ride from Parrish to Santa’s North Pole, where families can enjoy storytelling, campfires, toy tents, and endless cocoa and cookies. Meet Santa, take photos, and receive a special gift for every child. The fresh-air coaches—once used by Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey—add a touch of nostalgia to this family favorite. Feel the breeze, hear the whistle, and watch the Florida countryside turn into a winter wonderland of lights and laughter.
