FYI, this time of year the Grand Canyon Railway runs The Polar Express... as they have for the last few years. it's a great time for kids. From what I have learned by the travel agents I work with, the train leaves Williams and travels up to a 'Santas Village' approximately 3/4 up the route. Along the way, the train employees lead everyone in carols and read christmas stories... for more info, visit www.thetrain.com. My desk is right next to the AAA Arizona travel call center, and thats one of the primary things they get calls about, and it sounds like quite an experience.
