Each December, Canadian Pacific's Holiday Train travels across Canada and the
United States to raise food, money and awareness for local food banks.
Illuminated by hundreds of thousands of festive lights, the Holiday Train makes
its way across seven states and six provinces visiting over 100 Canadian and
U.S. communities.
Food Banks
In
Canada, donations are collected for food banks affiliated with the Canadian
Association of Food Banks. In the United States, local food pantries and food
shelves benefit from this program. Our eight year total -- close to $3 million
dollars and 1.6 million pounds of food.
Entertainers
2007's Canadian Holiday Train musicians include
one of Canada's most versatile musical exports, Wide Mouth Mason, and Canadian
pop sensation Melanie Doane. 2008 Entertainers will be updated closer to
the event date.

AC/DC, The Rolling Stones, The Guess Who, gaining more fans with each
