The CPKC Holiday Train is riding the rails again! The cross-continent tour to raise money, food and awareness for local food banks along the route will roll into Toronto on Friday, November 29. The train arrives at 8:15pm and musical entertainment will run from 8:30-9:00pm. We recommend arriving early to get a good spot! 

At the event, you can: 

  • Watch the 1,000-foot-long train chug into the station, each of its 14 cars alit with holiday cheer. 
  • Listen to live performances from JUNO nominee Shawnee Kish and multi-platinum artist Tyler Shaw.
  • Say hi to Santa and meet members of the Toronto Fire team, who will be on-site. 

“The Holiday Train unites people in the spirit of the season as it travels across Canada and the United States, while generating critical support for our neighbours in need through the program’s support of local food banks,” said Keith Creel, CPKC President and Chief Executive Officer, in a statement.
