Disney Brings Holiday Travel to You
Disney has done it again. The house of mouse has teamed up with Amtrak and Hewlett Packard to bring you Christmas in July (also, May, June, August, September, October and November). No jacket required.
In support of Disney’s new Robert Zemeckis vehicle “A Christmas Carol” staring Jim Carrey, Gary Oldman and Colin Firth- a capture-motion 3-D event, they are putting Charles Dickens’ classic tale on wheels, or tracks as the case may be. If I’m not being clear, I’m talking about a train.
What’s great about this free family-friendly destination is that it will be stopping in 40 cities as it makes its way from Los Angeles to New York City, meaning at some point it will be a short daytrip for most of America.
The train itself is not just a promotion for the upcoming film, but also a traveling shrine to author Charles Dickens made up of artifacts on loan from London’s Charles Dickens Museum.
