Was going into Grand Central today on one of the NHL shoppers specials around noon, saw some weird train bookended by 204 and 201 around Mott Haven - flu shot train, something else? It looked like it had the Phoebe Snow cars and was only 2 or 3 cars long.

Holiday train, it takes staff to visit troops in field and wish them Happy Holidays.

Also another thought, but being scrooge that I am, figured it was too early for that...apparently not!

Someone was a Scrooge,

The train set got dragged with the handbrakes on. Last year with the horrible events it was cancelled outright. Maybe in 2015 it will make a full appearance. I believe it's in Harmon now being repaired.
