Sold-Out Blackstone Valley Polar Express Adds More Dates

Sold-Out Blackstone Valley Polar Express Adds More Dates

It's become a family holiday tradition in RI, and has already sold out. Lucky for fans of the Chris Van Allsburg book (and whimsical train rides), the Blackstone Valley Polar Express train ride has added two more dates. But you better hurry, before those sell out as well.

The Dec. 4 and 5 tours are sold out, but new ones will be held Dec. 12 and 19. Departures both dates are 10:45 a.m. and 1:45 p.m., leaving from the train depot at 1 Depot Square in Woonsocket.

During the one-and-a-half-hour ride, passengers will hear a story presentation of “The Polar Express,” be served hot chocolate and cookies, join in a sing-along, receive a special holiday remembrance, and have a visit from Santa Claus.

Tickets start at $37 each. For ticket reservation and information, visit www.tourblackstone.com.
