Since its inception in 1999, the CP Holiday Train has raised more than $21 million and 5 million pounds of food for community food banks across the U.S. and Canada. CP strongly encourages attendees to bring cash donations since local food banks have agreements to purchase food at a discount.

Holiday Train fans can follow the train via Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @CanadianPacific. A live train tracker will be available at cpr.ca/holidaytrain.
