Caltrain’s Holiday Train
Saturday and Sunday, 4 p.m.
Fourth and King Station
The 15th annual Holiday Train will be chugging along this weekend on its mission to spread holiday magic and revelry. Over 70,000 decorative lights will illuminate the train as it makes stops at nine stations including the San Francisco station at Fourth and King streets. The train will depart this station at 4 p.m. both days. During each stop, which will last about 20 minutes, Santa, Mrs. Claus and company will take to the platform to greet the assembled crowd. Help spread holiday joy by bringing an unwrapped toy for donation to the Salvation Army and the U.S. Marine Corp Reserve Toys for Tots programs.
If you’re looking to get a glimpse of the holiday train before it pulls out of the depot, you can take the N Judah, T Third, E Embarcadero, 10 Townsend, 30 Stockton, 45 Union/Stockton, and 47 Van Ness to Fourth and King area.
Muni service note: No Muni service will be affected.
Deck The Hall
Sunday, 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Davies Symphony Hall
