Events Description
The holiday magic comes to life!
Santa loves trains and he has just let us know that he will be able to spare some time during his busiest season for a fun filled train ride.
All aboard the Waterloo Central Railway for a Christmas train ride!
Join us at the Farmers Market Station adjacent to the St. Jacobs Farmers Market and board our annual day time Christmas train experience.
While on this heritage train, passengers will ride through the Waterloo countryside from St. Jacobs to Elmira while enjoying festive carols, Christmas crafts, a holiday dance party, and, of course, a visit from Santa!
Children young and old will enjoy this special experience unique to the Waterloo Region.
We also offer Santa’s Christmas Caboose, a fantastic musical and lighted night-time adventure.
