Each year, The Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) has Holiday Trains which hit the rails on December 1st visiting over 100 communities in seven states and six provinces to raise food, money and awareness for local food banks. Bring your cash and food donations and support your local food bank. To date, they have raised $3 million dollars and 1.6 million pounds of food. This year's entertainers and musicians include Wide Mouth Mason, Melanie Doane, Tracey Brown, Colin Linden, Mike Norman, and Ennis.
