(Calgary, Alberta) - The cross-country Christmas train that passes through this area annually has announced some details for its next visit.
The Canadian Pacific-Kansas City Holiday Train will begin its 32-day journey in Montreal on November 19, with stops in 182 communities across Canada and the U.S. It’s the 28th year for the railroad spectacle, which has raised more than $28.3 million and over 5.6 million pounds of food for community food banks.
“Our railroaders take great pride in bringing the Holiday Train through hundreds of communities across our network to support people facing food insecurity,” said CPKC President and CEO Keith Creel. “This year, we are going farther south than we ever have before, visiting 10 communities in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Missouri for the first time.”
As usual the CPKC Holiday Train will make no stops in Indiana. However, the brightly-lit choo choo will travel through La Porte County on Monday, November 23, sometime between 2:00 and 4:00 am CST. Right now, organizers say the time windows are more broad due uncertainties this far out. Closer to the run, they should have more exact times.
