Experience the magic of the season at the Oregon Rail Heritage Center. The most highly anticipated event of the year is just around the corner — the beloved Holiday Express. Climb aboard with Santa Claus and his elves for a festive ride behind the historic 1912 Polson #2 steam locomotive. Relax in the warm, decorated cars as you travel along the Willamette River, then step into the cozy enginehouse for cocoa, treats, and holiday cheer.

Tickets for the Oregon Rail Heritage Center’s Holiday Express are limited and sell out quickly. Book yours today and experience the most wonderful time of the year.
