Santa brings holiday cheer by rail
Santa will trade in his reindeer for a Metrolink train to benefit
charity Friday when he stops in Burbank aboard the Holiday Toy
Express.
The train, adorned with holiday decoration, will pull into the
Burbank Metrolink station, 201 N. Front St., at 7:30 p.m. The event,
which benefits the Burbank firefighter’s Spark of Love Toy Drive,
will include the Media City Ballet performing segments of “The
Nutcracker” at 6:30 p.m., the arrival of Santa and other characters
from the North Pole along with complimentary hot chocolate and baked
goodies.
Participants are asked to bring unwrapped toys to be donated to
the Burbank Spark of Love toy drive, which provides holiday gifts for
economically disadvant- aged families in Burbank.
For more information and to make a donation, call the Burbank Fire
Department at 238-3386.
