Description
Step aboard the Cooperstown & Charlotte Valley Railroad for the Santa Claus Express Train Ride — a 2.5-hour holiday adventure filled with warmth, laughter, and Christmas spirit. Santa and Mrs. Claus visit each coach, greeting children and posing for photos while holiday music and twinkling lights set the festive mood. Choose between Standard Coach (walk-over seats), Premium Coach (reclining comfort), or Table Coach (private table for up to four guests). Sip cocoa, snack on treats, and watch the snowy New York countryside roll by. Heated cars ensure a cozy ride, and guests are welcome to bring a small wrapped gift labeled with their child’s name for Santa to surprise them with during the trip. Whether you join friends, family, or little ones on their first Santa train, this joyful experience is a cherished holiday tradition in Cooperstown.
