Starting on the 22nd November and running until the 23rd December, Vintage Trains will be running their Polar Express train from Birmingham Moor Street.

The festive journey includes an immersive family experience, bringing to life the 2004 film and provides fun for all ages.

Last year, when the Polar Express ran, it brought in around 19,000 to the railway, and tickets for this year are now on sale.

Those wanting to attend are encouraged to book as soon as possible, as tickets are expected to sell out quickly.

The Polar Express train will see the film recreated on heritage carriages hauled by a steam locomotive, and each passenger will receive a golden ticket to commemorate their trip.

Passengers will also be able to enjoy a hot chocolate and cookie on their journey, and Father Christmas will be giving out the first gift of Christmas, which is a bell that only rings for those who believe.

Passengers will be able to take commemorative photos with the locomotive and the characters and purchase special merchandise.

Premium tickets are also available, which come with a bag and mug.

Further information on timings, dates and fares is available online.
