Hello Friends of the Steam Railroading Institute –

The moment you have been waiting for is now arriving! We are pleased to announce that tickets for the 2022 North Pole Express will be available for you to purchase beginning at 5:00 pm, Thursday, September 22nd.

Detailed descriptions, pricing, and frequently asked questions regarding our North Pole Express trips can be found on our website https://michigansteamtrain.com/north-pole-express/. We encourage you to review the information on this website now and decide on your travel dates and level of service, prior to beginning the purchasing process on Thursday. The “Book Now” ticketing link on that webpage will be open on Thursday, September 22nd, at 5:00 pm.

Even though this year’s North Pole Express will not be powered with our favorite steam locomotive and we will be using diesels instead, we are still looking forward to a great and busy holiday season. All of your favorite experiences on board the train and in the Village of Ashley’s Country Christmas will still be present and available for you to enjoy.

Thank You for your support of the Steam Railroading Institute, and we look forward to welcoming you aboard!
