Step aboard the North Pole Flyer and drift into a world where vintage train windows frame the winter countryside, the scent of rich hot cocoa and fresh-baked holiday cookies fills the air, and soft carols float through festively decorated cars. This two-hour journey from our historic 1912 Bertram Depot is filled with pure Christmas wonder! Santa and Mrs. Claus visit each railcar, share warm smiles, pose for photos, and gift every child a keepsake to treasure. All-you-can-drink hot cocoa, a locally baked holiday cookie, live balloon twisters, cheerful singing, and a cozy reading of the North Pole Flyer story create an atmosphere that feels straight out of a Christmas daydream. From the swish of Santa’s coat to the whisper of turning pages, the ride invites families to slow down, snuggle close, and soak in a moment of holiday magic they’ll remember long after the train pulls back into the station.
