Train whistles ring, are you listening? Oh wait… that’s not quite how it goes. Unless, of course, you’re planning on taking a trip to the North Pole aboard the famous Arcade & Attica Railroad! Hop on board and read on to learn about what you can expect on this magical holiday journey!
We originally posted this article in 2017, but we’ve updated it with the latest details for 2018!
The Arcade & Attica has been hosting holiday train rides for years.
Your ride on the A&A will take you to Currier's Station, which will be transformed into the North Pole with twinkling Christmas lights, Santa's reindeer, and more!
This event is obviously intended for children, but families and adults alike will appreciate the magic of the season.
Once you unboard the train at the "North Pole," you will get a chance to visit with the reindeer, participate in activities in the Elf Workshed, and take a walk through Santa's Workshop!
The inside of the North Pole is festive as can be!
It's evident that Mrs. Claus has been busy decorating for the season! Children will be filled with wonder when they get a chance to see where Santa and his Mrs. live!
Parents will be happy with the wide variety of photo opportunities available, too.
Every parent knows you can't take a train ride to the North Pole with your kids without snapping a few hundred forced pictures, right? Lucky for you, Santa's red sleigh will be available for your kiddos to pile in to say "Cheese!" with Santa and Mrs. Claus at their sides!
Don't leave without popping into the Elf Workshed to make your own bag of reindeer food! And don't let your little ones forget to grab their goodie bags with magic jingle bell keepsakes from Santa!
Once you've finished experiencing the magic up north, it's time to head back to Arcade.
The train departs from Currier's Station (AKA the North Pole) for a ride back to Arcade. But not to worry - the fun isn't over once you leave the N.P.! Children will receive a plush toy from the elves on the trip back to the station.
The Arcade & Attica's North Pole Express train ride is the perfect holiday tradition.
The just-over-two-hour trip is the perfect amount of time for kids to enjoy the experience without getting fidgety! And adults always appreciate learning the history and seeing the wonder of the season through the little ones' eyes.
Tickets for the A&A’s North Pole Express are $28 for adults and $26 for children, seniors, and veterans. Don’t miss out on this exciting holiday experience! The event runs on weekends through December 23rd, but seats are going fast – so head to their website to reserve your spots while you still can!
