Minnesota Holiday Train Stops Announced for 2018
Unfortunately the Holiday Train won't be stopping in St. Cloud this year, but the good news is that we won't have to drive too far to see it. Here is a layout of where it will be and when in Central Minnesota!

The performers for every stop on this list are The Trews and Willy Porter. Since 1999, the Holiday Train has raised more than $14.5 million and 4.3 million pounds of food for North American food banks. Everything raised in a community stays in that community. In addition, Canadian Pacific makes a donations at each stop. What can you expect when you go to see it? Here is the run down:
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. After that, a brief presentation takes place with local food bank officials and other dignitaries. Once complete, the band resumes performing a mix of traditional and modern holiday-themed songs. The whole event lasts about 30 minutes. Once the band plays its farewell song, the stage door closes, and the train heads off to the next stop.
