Holiday Train

A beloved holiday tradition is once again using a virtual method to spread Christmas cheer this year.

The Canadian Pacific Holiday Train is taking 2020 off in order to limit the gathering of people and avoid spreading COVID-19.

There are multiple other stops around Central Minnesota on this holiday train's journey across the upper Midwest and Canada.

The Canadian Pacific Holiday Train made 8 different stops in Central Minnesota this past weekend, and a few kids on Sunday afternoon shared a special moment to say goodbye to the yearly tradition...

We in Central Minnesota know that train business is a part of our everyday lives, but for the last 15 years Canadian Pacific Railway has brightened our tracks for the Holidays...
