Polar Express brings magic to Aspen Crossing – Calgary [Video]

Aspen Crossing is once again delivering Christmas magic with its Polar Express train ride — a festive, hour-long journey to the North Pole inspired by the hit movie. Families enjoy hot chocolate, cookies, dancing servers, and a reading of the classic story, all while dressed in their coziest pajamas.

“Families come year after year, which is amazing,” says conductor Kent Pederson. “What people see is the magic of Christmas.”

Passengers receive a golden ticket and a silver bell as they experience the wonder of Santa’s visit.

This is Aspen Crossing’s 20th anniversary. It is a heritage railway site in Alberta, and offers themed excursions throughout the year.
