Santa's Silver Sleigh on PATCO is Saturday, Dec. 6
Join Santa and his elves on a festive train ride to Philadelphia
Children and adults alike will enjoy the opportunity to ride the train with Santa on Saturday, December 6, 2014. Specially decorated PATCO trains will make three trips, leaving the Lindenwold station at 9:30 a.m., 11 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. and picking up passengers at all stops along the way.
“We’re making the train ride part of the family holiday fun,” says John Rink, PATCO General Manager. “PATCO is the best way to enjoy holiday traditions in Philadelphia. Parking is free at our stations after 10 a.m. and our 8th/Market station is in walking distance of all the action.”
After enjoying their ride with Santa and his elves, complete with seasonal music, Santa’s Sleigh passengers can shop at Christmas Village in Love Park, check out the light show and “Christmas Carol” display at Macy’s or strap on their ice skates at the Rothman Rink at City Hall, among many other family-friendly activities.
