All Aboard the Metrolink Holiday Express Train!

Join Us for the Inaugural Event at the Vista Canyon Metrolink Station

Step into a world of holiday fun! The City of Santa Clarita is excited to partner with Metrolink to offer our residents a new, unique and festive activity this holiday season. On Sunday, December 15 the Holiday Express Train will come to the Vista Canyon Multi-Modal Center (22750 ½ Vista Canyon Boulevard) where train riders can experience the joy and magic of the season aboard a specially decorated trainset.

"We're excited to partner with Metrolink to bring the Holiday Express Train to Santa Clarita for the very first time," said Mayor Cameron Smyth. "This partnership underscores our City's commitment to providing residents with convenient and reliable public transportation options, all while bringing an extra touch of magic to this festive season."

Each train ride will have holiday decorations, cheerful carolers, recognizable characters, festive surprises and our very own mascot Sammy Clarita, making it a perfect event for all ages. There will be two departure times from the Vista Canyon Station, 9:30 a.m. and 1:20 p.m. The 90-minute journey will take riders to the Lancaster Metrolink station and back.

Tickets are $25 per person, with an additional $5 option for a limited number of table seats. Children under two can ride for free on a parent's lap. Tickets must be purchased in advance at MetrolinkTrains.com/HolidayTrain, as no tickets will be sold at the event. Seating is assigned, and guests are encouraged to arrive early to enjoy pre-boarding festivities.

Welcome event activities will include craft stations, games for kids, balloon twisters, music and more. Attendees can also bring unwrapped toys to donate to the Salvation Army Santa Clarita Valley Corps, which supports local families in need during the holiday season.
