Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) has announced the schedule and artist lineup for its 25th annual Holiday Train program, which will begin rolling across Canada and the United States on Nov. 20.

Since the program began in 1999, the Holiday Train has visited hundreds of communities and raised over 5 million pounds of food and more than $22.5 million for community food banks, according to a CPKC news release.

This year's Holiday Train tour will include 191 live music shows in six provinces and 14 states. For the first time, the train will host shows in Pittsburg, Kansas.; Joplin, Missouri.; Heavener, Oklahoma.; Mena, Arkansas.; Texarkana, Texas, and Shreveport, Louisiana.

In addition, the Holiday Express will make 20 public stops across CPKC's network in Louisiana, Missouri and Texas. The Holiday Express was a tradition at Kansas City Southern before CP acquired the railroad earlier this year.

A full schedule and details of this year's Holiday Train and Holiday Express train is available here.

Each event is free, with CPKC encouraging every attendee to make a monetary or heart-healthy food donation to ease hunger needs in their community.
