The CP Holiday Train is North America's longest rolling food bank fundraiser.  Since 1999 the program has raised close to $9.5 million and 3.3 million pounds of food.
Musicians will play over 150 concerts from a boxcar we've turned into a travelling stage.
Entertainment: Odds and Roxanne Potvin
Concerts are free Please bring a donation for your local food bank, either a non-perishable food or a cash donation. All contributions will stay in your community.

Sorry! Rides are not open to the public.
The train arrives and pulls to a safe stop in front of the crowd. The stage door lowers and the band opens with its first song. Then a brief ceremony takes place which involves local food bank officials and other dignitaries. Then the band resumes its show.
After about a half hour show (a mix of traditional and modern holiday-themed songs) the band plays its farewell, the boxcar door closes, and the train slips off into the night.
