About this adventure
Departing from the West Sacramento rail depot, the Sacramento River Fox Train rolls along the Sacramento River and scenic Yolo County farmland on a holiday-decorated vintage rail excursion. Daytime Santa Express trips and evening Magical Christmas Train runs feature festive carols led by Santa's elves, holiday trivia games, complimentary hot cocoa in souvenir mugs, and freshly baked cookies. Every child enjoys a personal visit with Santa Claus and receives a special keepsake holiday gift.
