OK, Yesterday around 530PM my family and I went down to the center of town by the Railroad tracks and experienced the Christmas train. Yes, a train that has Christmas decorations of lights on each train car. The train arrived at around 630pm and it moved slowly from my right to left, then it stopped and a wide door opened on one of the cars.


Then we saw a band inside the car and they started playing some Christmas music and some country songs. It was a very interesting and exciting night because this was the first time anyone of us had ever seen any thing like this.


I really did appreciate all the work that these people put into making each train car look so beautiful and wonderful. I found out that this train travels from Canada and hits a lot of towns and performs at each one.


My family and I really did enjoy ourselves even though it was cold and we didn't get home until 730pm. Overall, it was a fantastic night here in Minot N.D, they really do love Christmas here.

See it if you can!

Christmas train...I would love to experience that. Perhaps, next year!

Perhaps, it was a great time.

My husband and my sons would really like that. The pictures are beautiful!

Here in Burke, VA, our fire department has a truck that goes through each neighborhood, down every street, decorated, with Santa and Mr Claus standing on the top waving and tossing candy down to the children who run alongside. There is no schedule given to the public, so you just have to listen for the sound of the long siren that pierces the night. Not loud and urgent, but a softer version of the deep wail you hear when a truck is on the highway. More of a moaning sound, I suppose.

I think that my husband and I enjoy it as much as our children have over the years.

Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Thank You, Merry Christmas to your family.

When I was a kid in Prairie City, Iowa, the highlight of the Christmas season for us kids was when Santa came to town in the firetruck. Prairie City is built around a town square that has a bandstand in it. The firetruck came up the street with the siren going, and made its way to the bandstand. Santa had a bag of goodies for every kid in town. We all lined up for our turn to receive the bag of treats from Santa. They contained an orange, mixed nuts, a candy cane, and Christmas Candy. What a thrill, even for a kid who knew that it was really our parents who put the presents under the tree Christmas eve!

That sounds awesome, what great memories.

What wonderful memories. I think that's great.

What makes it great here is that we are not in a small town at all. We live in the Metropolitan Washington DC Area. We are one of the few areas around here that still has a volunteer fire department. I'm sure we wouldn't have it if we were just another fire station within the county.

It was awesome!

Looks like a great way to get into the Christmas spirit.
