This is the one that ran by my childhood home and as a child I loved seeing the Santa trains fly by the house. Naturally I want to experience this with my own children so I&#8217;ve booked tickets for it already!<\/p>\n<p>There are two routes available &#8211; return journeys from Caernarfon to Rhyd Ddu and from Porthmadog to Beddgelert. Santa and his elves will travel on the train and hand out gifts to the children. At Rhyd Ddu and Beddgelert there will be opportunities to have a photo taken with Santa. On the return journey us adults will receive a glass of sherry and mince pie. If you&#8217;re travelling the Porthmadog to Beddgelert route you will be treated to Christmas Carols at Beddgelert station.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Santa Trains<\/strong> will be running on weekends up to Christmas <strong>(December 7th\/8th, 14th\/15th, and 21st\/22nd)<\/strong>. Prices vary from \u00a315.50 to \u00a321 each depending on the route\/class you choose.
