Indiana Christmas Train 2026: Santa Rides From Pleasant Lake

The Indiana Christmas Train is a 90-minute holiday ride on vintage passenger cars out of Pleasant Lake, a small town in Steuben County about two and a half hours north of Indianapolis up I-69 and roughly 45 minutes past Fort Wayne. Santa visits every train and there is live music on board. A Christmas Kitchen car bakes holiday treats on the way for the families seated in it. It runs only eight days in December. The volunteers of the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society, the group that restored the Nickel Plate Road No. 765 steam locomotive, run it as a fundraiser for rail preservation, though this train runs behind one of the railroad’s diesels. For the closer rides, see our list of holiday train rides in Indiana.
