The American Authors and Rafa\u00eblle Roy will provide live performances.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe CPKC Holiday Train is one of the most special events of the holiday season! Not only are the lights and music spectacular, but it brings people together to give back to their communities and support friends, family, neighbours and those in need,\u201d said Zac Barnett of American Authors. \u201cWe feel so fortunate to take part in the celebration that makes such a meaningful impact.\u201d<\/p>\n
People are encouraged to bring a cash donation or non-perishable food item to donate to a local food bank.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur railroaders take great pride in bringing the Holiday Train through hundreds of communities across our network to support people facing food insecurity,\u201d said CPKC President and CEO Keith Creel. \u201cThis year, we are going farther south than we ever have before, visiting 10 communities in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Missouri for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThrough the generosity of the thousands of families and fans who come out to see the Holiday Train and support local food banks, whether for the first time or as part of a long-running holiday tradition, we can spread the joy of the season and support the giving spirit of the holidays,\u201d Creel added.<\/p>\n
