The Polar Express will return to the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad Company and Museum for another season. The first train to the North Pole departs from Portland the day after Thanksgiving, Nov. 29.
Guests on board will meet the conductor, have hot chocolate and cookies, listen to the reading of the story and sing along with carols as they journey to the North Pole. Santa will greet passengers aboard the train and every child will receive a special bell as a souvenir.
Advanced and early reservations are recommended. The Polar Express runs from Thanksgiving to Christmas, with tickets ranging in price from $20-$40 a person. Coach and first class seating options are available. For more information or to reserve tickets, contact Porttix at www.porttix.com or 842-0800.
The railroad is at 58 Fore St. on the waterfront. Directions and more information can be found at www.mainenarrowgauge.org or by calling 828-0814.
