A Christmas Tradition continues! Here comes The Santa Express!

Ride the Seashore Lines on a historic, comfortable and fun train ride with Santa Claus, as Santa returns to visit with children (young and older!) on board The Santa Express! The Santa Express will operate every weekend and select weekdays and evenings between Thanksgiving and Christmas! There’s even a train ride after Christmas!

For your convenience, the Seashore Lines is pleased to provide several versions of its famous Santa Express! Below you will find a description of the Seashore Lines' Santa Express services. Please take a moment of your time to read them carefully.

The Santa Express! A full round trip between Richland and Tuckahoe. You can board your Santa Express train at either Richland or Tuckahoe. The total round trip time, including layovers, is approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes.

The Santa Express Flyer! A shorter, approximately one hour round trip, designed with the 'little ones' in mind.
For instance, you would board your Santa Express Flyer at either Richland or Tuckahoe, ride for approximately one half hour, stop for just a few minutes, and ride approximately one half hour back to the station you originally boarded your train.
The Santa Express Starlight Flyer! The nighttime version of The Santa Express Flyer, as described above.

The Winter Flyer! For those who want to continue to celebrate the Christmas Holidays, the Seashore Lines is offering The Winter Flyer. Santa will not appear on these trains, as he’ll be back at the North Pole taking a break after a busy Christmas season, but the Christmas Holiday fun continues. The total round trip time is approximately one hour.

Make The Santa Express Starlight Flyer even more special - wear your pajamas!

All Santa Express trains (with the exception of The Winter Flyer), will feature Santa himself - along with his helpers, on board entertainment, and snack service on the Café, Lounge, and Observation Lounge cars.

Come see why so many folks have made The Santa Express trains holiday traditions....perhaps you'll start one of your own! And don't forget to have the kids bring their letters to Santa! It's Christmas fun for everyone!
