点评:We went on the North Pole Adventure Train on the Charley Russell Chew Choo. We drove 3.5 hours to get to Lewistown so we made a vacation out of it. If you are able to get tickets, as they sell out super fast, I recommend the 5:00 seating. We arrived at 4:30 and boarded about 4:45 and the train took off at 5. If you get the 7:00 seating you may be standing outside for quite some time as the train can run late and the staff need to reset it prior to boarding. The cookie they passed out were pretty crispy but the hot cocoa was good. They do not have water on board so I recommend brining a water bottle with you. My girls are 7 and 9 and may be about too old of this experience. It’s great for young kids. They colored, played games and sang Christmas carols with the kids while we traveled to the “North Pole.” Once arriving, there are small buildings lit up with Christmas lights. No one gets off the train but Santa will come out of one of the houses and wave then come on board. After meeting each child he will pass out a coin then get off the train and you will head back to the train station, Once back, it is pretty quick to get off the train.
If you have littles, this is a fun Montana tradition.
翻译:我们乘坐查理罗素楚楚号的北极探险列车。我们开车 3.5 小时到达刘易斯敦,所以我们把这次旅行当成了一次度假。如果你能买到票,因为它们卖得很快,我推荐 5:00 的座位。我们 4:30 到达,大约 4:45 登机,火车 5 点出发。如果你买到 7:00 的座位,你可能会在外面站很长时间,因为火车可能会晚点,工作人员需要在登机前重新设置它。他们分发的饼干非常脆,但热可可很好喝。车上没有水,所以我建议你随身带一瓶水。我的女儿分别是 7 岁和 9 岁,可能年纪太大了,不适合这种体验。这对小孩子来说很棒。在我们前往“北极”的途中,他们和孩子们一起涂色、玩游戏、唱圣诞颂歌。到达后,会看到一些小建筑被圣诞灯点亮。没有人下火车,但圣诞老人会从其中一所房子里出来,挥手示意,然后上车。见到每个孩子后,他会发一枚硬币,然后下车,然后你们将返回火车站,回来后,下车很快。
如果你有小孩,这是一个有趣的蒙大拿州传统。
