About the Holiday Train:

The Holiday Train is a freight train covered in more than 200,000 bright lights. At 140 stops across Canada and United States, Canadian Pacific provides a box car stage, a line up of great musical talent and a corporate contribution to the local food bank. Food banks provide collection bins for non-perishable food. Communities, in turn, donate food and funds, all of which stays in the community. The Holiday Train has raised $4 million and 2 million pounds of food. Full schedules and background information are available at www.cpr.ca by clicking on the Holiday Train.
