Santa will visit each child on the train and give them a holiday treat to enjoy on the ride to Ashland, Delaware.

The 1 1/2 hour round trip will give Old Saint Nick plenty of time to greet your family.

The train rolls through scenic northern Delaware's chateau country along the Red Clay Creek, so there are plenty of spots to watch the vintage locomotives and engines roll through the scenery.
