River Fox Train's Magical Christmas Train
Passengers ride through the Yolo countryside aboard train cars decorated in festive Christmas themes. During the trip, Santa's elves lead holiday songs, help children write letters to Santa, and host a snowball fight while guests enjoy cookies and hot cocoa. Santa visits every car along the journey, and visitors can also explore Santa's Village to view snow-dusted streets and festive photo spots.
