We took the Polar Express with our grandchildren and family on the day after Thanksgiving!! What a wonderful experience. It was magical. The train cars are beautiful, decorated for the holidays and spacious.

The whole experience was well run, well organized and good for anyone young and old!! Some families came in their pajamas!!
The staff on the train were friendly, personable and looked like they were having as much fun as the passengers! The young ladies dressed as cooks were from Kingston & Onteora High Schools. They were amazing!! They went around to all of the families and spoke to the children, took pictures and made sure everyone was having a great time!!

Santa was the best!! He looked great, talked to each family and posed for pictures. This will be a very special memory for years to come.

We plan to make this an annual tradition. Thank you to everyone at the Catskill Mountain Railroad for creating such a special experience!!
