This is the Pacific Southwest Railway Museum's 'North Pole Limited' at Campo, California on December 13, 2008. Seven heavy weight cars; a neat Geep; gallons of hot chocolate; a sold out crowd of kids, parents, and grandparents; 20 elves; no partridge; and 2 Santa Clauses! The Museum ran 10 such trains between Thanksgiving and Christmas to the North Pole with all sold out. The white spots in the picture? They're nothing because it doesn't rain in Southern California.
