Our Polar Express
Train Ride departs on weekend in December from Lehigh
Junction located in the Historic Main Street area of Phillipsburg New
Jersey
On the train you will re-live the experience of the little boy in The
Polar Express©, written by
Chris Van Allsburg
and published by the Houghton Mifflin Company.
The story focuses on a little boy who has been told by his friends that
there is no Santa Claus. Unwilling to believe this, he lies awake in his
bed on Christmas Eve, waiting for the sound of Santa's sleigh. Instead,
he hears the hissing steam and squeaking metal of the Polar Express as it
stops outside his window, ready to take him and other children to the
North Pole. During your ride you will listen to this wonderful
story, every child will be served hot chocolate and cookies and visit with Santa.
Every child will receive a very special bell from Santa. Only those
who believe can hear the sound of Santa's sleigh bell, can you?
