The Polar Bear Express has delighted children of all ages since 1995. Families gather at Fishers Station to hear a railroad themed Christmas story and to ride on a real train with refreshments served on board.

On daytime trips (shown on the tan background on the schedule below) the train travels from Fishers to Noblesville and returns to Fishers.  Santa Claus rides the train and visits with the passengers.  Juice and cookies are served to the children.  The story and train ride will take approximately an hour and a half.

Daytime trips are available as SCHOOL CHARTERS on December 6, 7, 8 and 9.

The evening trips (5:45 and 7:30pm) travel through Noblesville's square to the "North Pole" located at the Indiana Transportation Museum in Forest Park in northwest Noblesville.  Santa, Mrs. Claus and the Polar Bear board the train for the return to Fishers.  During the trip children receive hot cocoa and a "goody bag" containing cookies and candy.  The event, including story and train ride, takes approximately two hours.

Evening trips are available as CHARTERS on December 6, 7, 8 and 9.  Call the ITM office for information.

Treats of various types are given to the children on all trips.  Please, if your child has a food allergy, take control and do not allow your child to consume the items we hand out.

Each trip begins with passengers gathering in Fishers Station where an illustrated,  railroad-related Christmas story will be presented. During the story the audience is seated on the floor of the community room so please dress accordingly.  A real train ride follows the reading.

Please plan to arrive 30 minutes before the selected story time and enter the Fishers Train Station located at 11601 Municipal Drive, Fishers, IN 46308 (116th Street, half a mile west of the I-69 interchange). The reading will take place in the Community Room.  Free parking is available at the station.
