Canadian Pacific will host a virtual concert and donate to local food banks in communities across its network during its Holiday Train program's 23rd year.
Although this year's Holiday Train will again be virtual, the program will continue to highlight and support food banks, CP officials said in a news release.
Since its inception in 1999, the Holiday Train has raised $19.4 million and collected 4.9 million pounds of food for community food banks along CP's network. The Class I will again donate to all food banks that would ordinarily benefit from a Holiday Train stop, including those that typically host the train in alternating years.
CP plans to release details on a virtual benefit concert in the coming weeks.
