Now in its 18th year, the festive CTA Holiday Train will make its first appearance Saturday, November 21 spreading holiday cheer to CTA customers.
The six-car holiday train is decorated with multi-colored lights and features a flat car carrying Santa and his reindeer. Car interiors are decked with bows, garland, red and green lighting and hand poles wrapped to look like candy canes. Festive holiday music is played to ring in another holiday season.
