Canadian Pacific's Holiday Train returning to the Chicago area later this month
A popular holiday staple will return to railroads across the country — and the Chicago area — this holiday season, featuring musical performances, a dazzling display of lights and special guests. Canadian Pacific’s Holiday Train will tour Canada and the U.S. from, Nov. 21 through Dec. 20, raising donations for food banks across the company’s network, according to a news release. As it treks across the nation, the holiday train will make not just one — but three stops in the Chicago suburbs. Last holiday season, the train held events in Gurnee and Pingree Grove. This time around, a stop in Franklin Park will be added to its itinerary.
