All Aboard Metrolink’s Holiday Toy Express
ORANGE – The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) and Metrolink invite you to enjoy the festivities as the Holiday Toy Express stops at stations all over Orange County and collects toys for children in need.
The Metrolink Holiday Toy Express will appear at 10 stations and includes a free show starring Santa and Mrs. Claus and featuring a live singing and dancing cast and a train decorated with more than 50,000 colorful lights.
“The holidays are a great time to share our joy with loved ones and also an opportunity to help those less who are less fortunate,” said OCTA Chairman Paul Glaab, also mayor of Laguna Niguel. “We hope everyone who comes out will donate a toy and help brighten the holiday season for a child in our community.”
