Like the ‘Polar Express?' Here's Where it's Stopping in the Chicago-Area

Be sure to check for holes in your pockets before climbing aboard the Polar Express when it stops at dozens of Metra stations this holiday season.

Inspired by the beloved Christmas children’s book “The Polar Express,” by Chris Van Allsburg, “Santa on the Polar Express Storytime Train” is pulling into a station near you. Kids of all ages can enjoy riding on a train accompanied by ol’ St. Nick himself while enjoying chocolate milk, cookies and a reading of the Christmastime classic.

Space on the train trips is very limited, so be sure to check with your local park district to ensure a space.
