As train ridership rebounds from a pandemic drop-off, Metra announced Wednesday that it will soon gain two new riders: Santa and Mrs. Claus.
“Our trains are already safe, reliable, and comfortable, but they can be fun too,” said Jim Derwinski, Metra CEO and executive director in a news release. “This is our way to bring a little bit of holiday joy.”Riders who score a ticket for the train will be greeted by elves as they embark and find goody bags aboard, Metra spokesman Michael Gillis said. The train will be decorated with lights, wreaths and candy canes.
The holiday rides will take place on Dec. 3, 10 and 17. Trains will depart from University Park at 11 a.m. Saturday and return at 3:15 p.m., making stops along the way and waiting two hours at Millennium before embarking on its return journey, though riders wishing to enjoy Chicago’s holiday festivities longer will be able to take any outbound Metra Electric train that day.
