The Okanagan’s Kettle Valley Christmas Express is back for another year.
Decked out in Christmas lights, the century-old steam train is taking visitors from Summerland to Trout Bridge and back in holiday style.
“Well, they can expect to see some beautiful lights as they travel past the houses in Summerland,” said Doug MacKay of the Kettle Valley Railway Society.

The trip covers 32 total kilometres and lasts about an hour.

The Christmas train, which began on Dec. 8, will run until Dec. 23.
