A Christmas Carol at Grand Canyon Railway Depot

After its send-off in Los Angeles, the Grand Canyon Railway Depot in Williams, Arizona, will be the first stop for the cross-country train tour promoting “Disney’s A Christmas Carol,” new 3-D film from Robert Zemeckis, starring Jim Carey.

A sneak peek preview of the movie in Disney Digital 3-D will be featured in an inflatable theater, but don't expect to get a peek at Jim Carey. Unfortunately, he won't be along for the train ride.

"Featuring four custom-designed vintage rail cars full of behind-the-scenes attractions, entertaining demonstrations, and fun activities, the tour will have its inaugural stop at Los Angeles’ Union Station over Memorial Day Weekend, from May 22nd through May 25th. During the next 24 weeks, the train will make 40 stops in 36 states, as it travels its way across more than 16,000 miles of track. The tour will finish at New York’s Grand Central Terminal over the weekend of October 30th through November 1st."

The three-day event is free and there is still time to make last minute plans to head to the Grand Canyon Railway Depot to be among the first to get a preview of Disney's latest holiday movie, A Christmas Carol.
