North Pole Express - Friends of the 261
*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 12/10/2023
Children and trains go together during the Holiday Season like colorful lights, brightly iced cookies, festively wrapped gifts, family and friends. Please join the nonprofit Friends of the 261 annual journey on the North Pole Express.
The North Pole Express is our group’s largest yearly fundraiser enabling us to continue to operate and maintain the stars of the show, the Milwaukee Road #261 steam locomotive, built in 1944, operating the first weekend. Followed by Milwaukee Road #32A, an E9 diesel built in 1956, operating the second weekend. Experience a ride in one of our of historic rail cars pulled by these classic center pieces of engineering.
Our show is brought to you by our excited ALL volunteer crew, Santa and his elves that promises to make this a memorable Holiday Tradition.
Climb aboard this holiday train from the past that includes the North Pole and a visit from Santa himself! Avoid the trouble of setting up your old train set around the tree this year and let us provide you with a REAL steam train for the holidays.
