There are few Christmas experiences as magical as riding on a true Polar Express. And the Delaware River Railroad Excursions in Phillipsburg, NJ offers an authentic ride. The problem is it’s usually sold out WAY before any of us are ready to start thinking about holiday train rides, or Christmas in general. In fact, there are already dates that are completely sold out.
This adorable event is fun for the whole family and it’s the perfect pre-Christmas activity to get you and the kids feeling festive. The family favorite event brings the beloved Polar Express book and movie to life by incorporating the movie’s soundtrack while hot chocolate and cookies are served on board. You’ll be amazed by the juggling chef and have the time of your life singing along with the roaming hobos. Families are encouraged to wear their pajamas for the ride to really embrace the magic of this Christmas classic.
Passengers will also be entertained by a reading of the Polar Express book, and every kid will receive his or her own sleigh bell, which can only be heard by those who believe in Santa. Speaking of the big jolly fellow, he’ll be on board too, to greet kids and take photos.
So start celebrating Christmas in July, and grab your tickets early. Visit the Polar Express site for full information and to purchase tickets.
