About Santa Express at the NYMR - North Yorkshire Moors Railway
Come and enjoy a brand new interactive adventure for families as they meet Father Christmas on the NYMR Santa Express. The steam train ride will be packed with songs, jokes and the magic of Christmas, brought to life by Santa’s Elves - families will also get to meet the great man himself on board.
Your Santa Express
At Pickering station, families will be welcomed by the sights and sounds of the Santa Express steam train with Christmas decorations, traditional games, and live singing to get everyone in the Christmas spirit. Once on board, Santa’s team of elves will keep everyone entertained with sing-alongs, Christmas-cracker jokes, and plenty of fun. Each child will also receive a special keepsake to take home.
Meet The Elves
• Elton Elf, known for his musical skills.
• Joey Marshmallow, the cheeky trickster.
• Chef Custard, who looks after Santa and his reindeer with his special recipes.
• Also, keep an eye out for Chris Mouse, the Station Mouse, who checks that everyone is on the Nice List with his cheeky “eek, eek, eek!”
