‘Twas the Night Before Christmas Train Excursion

Join the Colebrookdale Railroad in your pajamas as Santa reads ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas.
Bask in the Christmas spirit and enjoy the comfort of the Colebrookdale’s Edwardian-era cars. Rumor has it that Santa himself will appear with a gift for every child. Younger riders can sit with Santa and receive a coloring book during the excursion. Arrive early to receive complimentary hot cocoa and Christmas cookies in the beautifully decorated train yard before you board.
No meals are served on this excursion, as it is a 90-minute round trip departing from and arriving in Boyertown, PA. However, the à la carte snack and beverage menu is available for purchasing drinks and snacks in all cars.
There will be a 5:00 pm departure and a 8 pm departure both dates. Purchase tickets in advance.
