Description
Each year, the Santa Train travels from Pikeville, Ky., to Kingsport, Tenn., on the Saturday before Thanksgiving in celebration of the holiday season. The Santa Train makes 14 stops in Kentucky, Virginia and Tennessee, distributing more than 15 tons and $300,000 worth of clothing, food, candy, toys and gifts to thousands of people. The annual project, co-sponsored by CSX, Food City, Your Kingsport Chamber and Dignity U Wear, is one of Appalachia’s most anticipated holiday traditions. Special Guest this year will be Country Music Star, Darryl Worley.
