Canadian Pacific Kansas City Holiday Train 2023 – Manitoba

The Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) Holiday Train program is returning to the rails to raise money, food, and awareness for food banks and hunger issues across Canada and the United States.

Beginning in Montreal, two trains will make the festive journey, travelling through both the U.S. and Canada to bring holiday cheer to many communities along CPKC’s network. Each event is free, with CPKC encouraging attendees to open their cupboards and wallets to help address hunger needs in their communities. Local food banks will be accepting donations at each stop to ensure those less fortunate have enough healthy food this holiday season.

Holiday Train is about 1,000 feet in length with 14 rail cars decorated with hundreds of thousands of technology-leading LED lights and a modified boxcar that has been turned into a traveling stage for performers.

Free, Donations to local food bank appreciated.

Canadian Train – Performers: Anyway Gang

A few summers ago, four friends from four of Canada’s most notable bands – Dave Monks from Tokyo Police Club, Sam Roberts from Sam Roberts Band, Menno Versteeg from Hollerado, and Chris Murphy from Sloan – got together to write some songs. Their first single, ‘Big Night’, went to #1 on alternative radio. To celebrate, they decided to play one show at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto. The show sold out in minutes, but they decided to quit while they were ahead and not do any more shows. Fast forward to 2023, the band is back with a full-length record called ‘Still Anyways’.
