The CPKC Holiday Train tours Canada and the United States each year, raising money, food, and awareness for the important work that food banks do in their communities. Professional musicians play free concerts from the brightly decorated train’s stage. CPKC makes a donation to the local food bank at each stop and encourages attendees to also donate. Since its inception in 1999, the CPKC Holiday Train has raised more than $22.5 million and more than 5 million pounds of food for community food banks across North America. This year, the trip began on November 20 and will run through December 19. For more information, visit the Holiday Train website. Photos are courtesy of BLET Special Representative Rich Bartela.
