Holiday Festival of Trains at the B&O in Baltimore
Santa will be taking the train from the North Pole to Baltimore and arriving at the B&O Railroad Museum on November 28th at 10:30 a.m. to kick off this year's Holiday Festival of Trains and will greet visitors throughout the day. The Festival will include a traditional celebration of toy and model railroads along with live entertainment. Visitors also have the chance to see the Museum's permanent HO model train layout in the C&O #725 passenger car and outdoor G-scale model train garden. This year, however, the B&O has some new goodies in the works, including a train ride with Santa! On weekends starting Saturday, November 29th through Sunday, December 21st, Santa will hop onboard the Museum's train rides to ride the rails with visitors! Also, "Santa's Secret Shop" will be hidden within the museum where, once discovered, children will have the opportunity to purchase their very own gifts for family and friends. There will also be holiday stories and videos, a craft area for children to decorate a train themed ornament, and the opportunity to have your photo taken at the new Dr. Coupler's B&O Railroad Photorium!
