Disney's A Christmas Carol Train

Disney is promoting its latest 3D animated film, A Christmas Carol to be released November 6, by a train criss-crossing the country. The train has exhibits from the making of the movie and some items from Charles Dickens himself. This weekend it stopped at Baltimore's B&O Museum near downtown.







Christmas carolers kept us in the Christmas mood. It was warm for a fall day in Baltimore but Disney supplied us with fake snow.

The first car of the exhibit had some of the costumes the actors wore for filming. There were also personal items from Charles Dickens.
