Description
Step back in time aboard a classic steam-powered train for a one-hour journey through the snow-covered hills of Central Pennsylvania. The Everett Railroad’s Santa Express brings the warmth of the holidays to life with vintage railcars, the sound of a working steam engine, and the sparkle of children meeting Santa Claus. Each passenger enjoys cocoa and cookies, while every child receives a small gift from Santa himself. Families can choose standard or first-class seating, with extra comfort and table service available for premium guests. It’s a nostalgic, heartwarming ride that turns the tradition of train travel into a cherished Christmas memory.
