Midwest Central Railroad - Museum in Mt Pleasant - 403 E Thresher Rd, USA

Polar express was fun. Steam train ride to the north pole with crafts 🎅 🧑‍🎄 pictures and cocoa and cookie. Its a quick 2 hours.

What A Wonderful Experience!!! We got off the Train In A Winter Wonderland, The North Pole right here in Iowa! Worth The Drive!

We went for the Polar Express and it was one of the best experiences I've had with any place. I proposed to my now fiancee with the help of the staff, but especially Lauren who helped me from the very start and I couldn't be more appreciative. Santa was. Very very kind amd sweet guy who came up to us and congratulated us afterwards. The North Pole set up that they had was amazing, immediately snow in the air as we stepped off the train, it made for a magical and perfect experience for us and our son. The souvenir shop had very reasonable prices and the group pictures were wonderful. I can't say enough good things about this place, will be making this a yearly tradition.

Very fun ride, we went to the North Pole Express. Despite the temperatures in the negatives, it was super worth it. My 2 year old son loved the smoke filled bubbles when you get to the north pole. Very cool experience! They ask for 15 minute early arrival, I highly recommend you take blankets with you, it can be very cold while waiting.

So much history

We went on the polar Express. These guys do a bang up job! Everything was well thought out and the kids loved it. It's obvious a lot of work and effort goes into this to ensure everyone has a joyous time.

3yrs now We have ride The Polar Express and have never been disappointed! The kids enjoy playing with the model trains at the North Pole. The short train ride was just long enough to hear the story! And Santa....he was amazing. I can't say enough good things about him and Mrs. Claus! They were so good with the kids and knew exactly what questions to ask. My husband walked out of the caboose and asked if I had told him what to ask the kids and I just shook my head, Santa just knew!!!

This is a wonderful place to spend some time learning about the History of the Railroad. They have an Awesome Steamshow, Halloween festivities, Christmas Polar Express Train. Something for all ages. The staff, volunteers are very knowledgeable, they love answering questions, you couldn't ask for a better place to spend the day.
