U.S Holiday Train to Make Stops in North, Northeast Iowa

The Canadian Pacific Holiday Train is back this year and will be making multiple stops in northern and northeast Iowa.

The 2023 CPKC Holiday Trains are touring Canada and the United States through December 19th to raise 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 shelf at each stop and encourages attendees to also donate.

This year is the 25th annual tour for the train, and will include performances from Seaforth, Anyway Gang, Breland, Kiesza, MacKenzie Porter, Tyler Shaw, Dallas Smith, Tenille Townes, Trudy, and Virginia to Vegas.

The Holiday Train is scheduled to stop in Mason City at 7:45 pm Thursday (December 7) night at the CPKC Depot  at 904 South Pennsylvania Avenue. 

On Friday (12.08), stops include 11 am in Ossian, 1:45 pm in Marquette, 3:50 pm in Lansing and 5:15 pm in New Albin.

Performances at each stop are 30 minutes and feature music by Tenille Townsend and Breland.
