It's the most wonderful time of the year when the Irvine Park Railroad decks
the train and Santa arrives for the 21st annual Christmas Train! There is
something special about twinkle lights, trees, and a train that takes you to Santa.
And the Christmas Train isn't just for Christmas adoring adults, the kids love it too!
We love having this Christmas tradition with the kids and I love to see how excited they
are to visit with Santa and share their Christmas wishes. He is definitely the best Santa in
Orange County. You can take pictures with Santa using your own camera,
or you can purchase a 5x7" photo taken by the Irvine Park Railroad.

Some helpful tips you'll want to remember when
coming to ride the Christmas Train:
TIP #1 BUY YOUR TICKETS EARLY AND ONLINE!
This is the only way to purchase tickets. Dates and times sell out quickly,
so get your tickets as soon as you can!
be sure to dress in layers and don't forget a your scarf.
TIP #4 - DON'T FORGET YOUR CAMERA
There are so many great photo opportunities that you'll be kicking
yourself if you don't bring a camera to catch them all.
TIP #5 - COME HUNGRY
There are lots of yummy treats available for purchase!
At the North Pole you can purchase hot chocolate, coffee, popcorn, hot pretzels and
cookies from the Elf House Snack Bar. The full kitchen menu is also available
at the train station.
One of my favorite parts of the evening is the twinkle lights tunnel.
It is so cool! I could drive through it over and over again. When you return to
the train station after your visit to the North Pole, you'll want to make sure you have
time for Santa's Village.
when the train returns you to the station or you can come early and enjoy them
before. My kids love decorating the Christmas cookies and playing the fun
carnival games and winning prizes.

Hi! Our favorite Holiday Tradition is, hmmm, there's a lot! We love Elf on a Shelf, making cookies, decorating the Tree together etc!!! Love your blog and thanks for the Christmas Train tips!
We love to look at Christmas lights!
We always make a gingerbread house every year as a family.
We color butcher block paper (my dad is a school teacher) then hang it in the hallway (prevents peaking) AND then in the morning we all hold hands and bust through the paper together AFTER mom has taken a picture of course.
This has carried on to all our individual families now as well!
