Our festive and fun North Pole Express boasts eight cars, the engine with Santa waving to the children, the coal car piled high with “coal”, followed by a car with an Elf peeping out the window. Next is the gingerbread car with two cute gingerbread popping out the top. No Christmas train would be complete without a Christmas tree, followed by a photo car - tuck in wallet sized photos of your children, grandchildren, or pets! And following the photo car is a car laden with gifts and last, but not least, the caboose. We provide lots of variations in the pattern instructions to personalize your tree skirt!
