Santa's Postal Van returns to service on Wednesdays, December 3 and 10, 2025, for a very special mission...
Under twinkling tinsel and the sweet scent of Christmas, Santa's elves will stop off at the Cité du Train - Patrimoine SNCF to collect, sort and prepare children's letters before their long journey to the North Pole.

Children strolling along the Quais de l'Histoire will be able to hand-deliver their mail to the elves, aboard this enchanting piece of railway equipment. These mischievous messengers will ensure that every wish is carefully delivered to Santa's office.

To celebrate the festive season and thank its visitors, the museum is offering an exceptional 50% discount on admission for these two Wednesdays.

And to prolong the enchantment and take full advantage of the Christmas spirit, the museum's restaurant will be serving hot drinks accompanied by tasty Mannalas*.

This year-end, let the magic of Christmas take the whole family to the Cité du Train - Patrimoine SNCF, the place where children's dreams and rail legends meet.
