​

After a long year and a half of staying home we are so very happy to announce that the North Pole Express will be returning to Ashley this year.  We got a late start but all the elves are working hard to get things ready for your visit.  So plan on riding the 1225 into town or come in your own vehicle for a magical trip back in time to the 1940's and 50's.  Come and visit Santa and maybe win the first gift of Christmas.  Play carnival games or ride the ferris wheel and merry go round.  Visit our many shops for gifts and home decor.  Visit the Elba Sweet Shop or the Czech Bakery for yummy treats.  If you get hungry you can visit one of our food establishments.  Build a toy at Santa's workshop to take home with you.  Get your picture taken in from of the beautiful ``1225 steam engine. Kids can write a letter to Santa and mail it at our antique post office. 
Would you like to come and work at the festival.  Check out our volunteer information under the "more" tab above.
