A theatrical Polar Express production staged on a heritage train departing from the mainline platforms at London Euston, produced by PNP Events under licence from Rail Events International. Performers act out the story on board, with hot chocolate, a sweet treat and a visit from Santa, and five departures a day between 11:00 and 19:15. Because the train runs on the mainline, Network Rail scheduling can move departure times by up to an hour either way.
