Watch The New Jersey Countryside Whirl By On This Unforgettable Christmas Train
If you’re looking for a magical Christmas train ride, New Jersey offers several options. One favorite is the Black River & Western Railroad’s North Pole Express. This enchanting locomotive journey is perfect for getting kids and adults alike into the holiday spirit.
The Black River Railroad Historical Trust operates scenic train rides throughout the year, with the North Pole Train being their most popular event.
The North Pole Train is a very special 2-hour journey. Guests will meet Santa at the North Pole, without needing to wait in line (there will be a virtual queue). Children will receive special gifts including a silver sleigh bell and a golden ticket! There will also be festive photo-ops and family gift bags.
Passengers can also upgrade to premium coach for a reserved table in their club car. Unlike previous years, refreshments will not be served. However, you can expect more decorations than ever!
All trains will depart from the Flemington Station. There is an option to book the entire caboose or club car for your private group. Guests under age 3 ride free and the train operates rain or shine.
According to the Black River & Western Railroad Covid-19 Policy, masks are required in most circumstances and trains will be operating at reduced capacity. You can learn more about the policy, the train ride, meet and greets with Santa, and book tickets on their website here: New Jersey North Pole Train Ride.
