Time to start booking for Christmas train rides! Many tourist railroads run special decorated trains,
with appearances by Santa plus nice touches like hot cocoa on board. Some trains are a "Santa Special" or a "North Pole Express"; some are trademarked "Polar Express" trains, that re-create the classic children’s story.
Book early! These trains often sell out. Fortunately, many start long before Christmas: the Grand Canyon Railway's Polar Express, for instance, makes its first run to the North Pole in early November, and also has a package that includes lodgings and meals.
