The KCS Holiday Express is a festive, 6-car train that brings Santa Claus and his elves to communities throughout the company's U.S. rail network at scheduled stops. Guests to the train can visit with Santa Claus and walk through 3 cars filled with holiday displays.
It started its 2018 journey in Shreveport and headed east into Mississippi. At each of the 22 stops, gift cards for children needing warm clothing and other necessities will be distributed to The Salvation Army. After leaving Mississippi, it will head back to Louisiana and then into Texas
Here are a few pictures I took of the "festive train" yesterday. A great turn out was had by all.
What a cute train face! It makes you smile!
A very big turnout with the weather being cool but perfect!
Holiday Express Train riding the rails!
The sunset in the Yazoo Diversion Canal last evening near the train.
Leaving to head home with a lot of traffic in town. I'm sure the little ones enjoyed the train and seeing Santa and his elves. It returns every other year and will be back in 2020!
