Climb aboard The Polar Express™ at the B&O Railroad Museum for a Christmas memory you’ll cherish forever. Experience this beloved holiday tradition with a magical train ride to the North Pole, while enjoying hot chocolate and cookies served by singing chefs and receive the First Gift of Christmas from Santa. When you arrive at the North Pole, you will delight in a winter wonderland complete with dancing elves, holiday crafts, a sleigh ride, photo ops with Old St. Nick, s'mores by the firepit, and delicious treats at the Candy Cane Café. 

Add the following enhancements to your North Pole experience for an additional fee: 

  • Rides on the North Pole’s Santa Sleigh Ride, an amusement ride located just outside of Santa’s workshop
  • S’mores at the Candy Cane Café 
  • Your very own The Polar Express book signed by Santa himself

This experience lasts about two hours.
