Santa Claus Train is a great train program to welcome Santa Claus with the kids，this time in the Hungarian Railway Museum，one of the best museums with children （and train enthusiasts） in Budapest. Event dates：Dec 8，Dec 9 and Dec 10 （Sunday） in 2023 The steam engine express train will take the children and parents from Nyugati Train Station to the Railway Museum in Budapest.The Orient Hall of the Train Museum turns into a festive party and stage to warmly welcome Santa and his helpers who bring lots of goodies and gifts for the kids.There is usually a show，goodie bags from Santa，etc. Booking the tickets for the Santa Claus train is from mid October. And if you should be wondering why the Santa Claus comes so early in Hungary，at the beginning of December，rather than as Father Christmas should，at Christmas，the fact is that in Hungary，Santa Claus has a special day，Dec 6 （St Nikolauss day），while the Christmas presents in Hungary are brought by the Baby Jesus （or the Little Angel）.Dont ask how kids believe that a baby should be so strong.They do.So a proper Hungarian Santa Claus （Telapo aka Mikulas） should come around Dec 6.
