1. On Christmas Eve, many years ago,Copy !req
2. I lay quietly in my bed.Copy !req
3. I did not rustle the sheets.Copy !req
4. I breathed slowly and silently.Copy !req
5. I was listening for a sound
I was afraid I'd never hear.Copy !req
6. The ringing bells of Santa's sleigh.Copy !req
7. All right. All right, Sarah,
you had your water.Copy !req
8. Now let's get you upstairs and into bed.Copy !req
9. But I have to...Copy !req
10. He said Santa would have
to fly faster than lightCopy !req
11. to get to every house in one night.
And to hold everyone's presents,Copy !req
12. his sled would be bigger
than an ocean liner.Copy !req
13. Your brother said that? He was kidding.
He knows there's a Santa.Copy !req
14. He said he wasn't sure.
He wasn't sure if Santa was for real.Copy !req
15. Of course Santa is real.
He's as real as Christmas itself.Copy !req
16. But he won't come until
you're sound asleep, young lady.Copy !req
17. Sweet dreams.Copy !req
18. Santa will be here before you know it.Copy !req
19. So, go to sleep.Copy !req
20. "Stark, barren."Copy !req
21. "Devoid of life."Copy !req
22. He's gotta be asleep by now.Copy !req
23. He used to stay awake all night
waiting for Santa.Copy !req
24. Think those days are just about over.Copy !req
25. That would be sad if that were true.Copy !req
26. Yeah, an end of the magic.Copy !req
27. Merry Christmas, sweetheart.Copy !req
28. See, he's out like a light.Copy !req
29. An express train wouldn't wake him up now.Copy !req
30. "End of the magic"?Copy !req
31. All aboard!Copy !req
32. All aboard!Copy !req
33. Well? You coming?Copy !req
34. Where?Copy !req
35. Why, to the North Pole, of course.Copy !req
36. This is the Polar Express.Copy !req
37. The North Pole?Copy !req
38. I see.Copy !req
39. Hold this, please.Copy !req
40. Thank you.Copy !req
41. Is this you?Copy !req
42. - Yeah.
- Well, it says here,Copy !req
43. no photo with a department-store Santa
this year, no letter to Santa.Copy !req
44. And you made your sister
put out the milk and cookies.Copy !req
45. Sounds to me like
this is your crucial year.Copy !req
46. If I were you,
I would think about climbing on board.Copy !req
47. Come on, come on, come on.
I've got a schedule to keep...Copy !req
48. Suit yourself.Copy !req
49. 'Cause that's the way things happen
On the Polar ExpressCopy !req
50. Whoo, whoo, the whistle blows
That's the sound of her singingCopy !req
51. Ding, ding, the bell will ring
Golly, look at her goCopy !req
52. You wonder if we'll get there soon
Anybody's guessCopy !req
53. 'Cause that's the way things happen
On the Polar ExpressCopy !req
54. When we get there
We'll scream, "Yay!"Copy !req
55. We'll arrive with a bang, bang, bangCopy !req
56. Boom, boom, boom
Laughing all the wayCopy !req
57. With a comfy seat and lots to eat
Boy, it's just the bestCopy !req
58. Wish it wouldn't ever have to endCopy !req
59. With a little luck, we'll be on time
There's no need to stressCopy !req
60. 'Cause that's the way things happen
On the Polar ExpressCopy !req
61. Hey. Hey, you. Yeah, you.
Do you know what kind of train this is?Copy !req
62. Train. Do you know what kind
of train this is? Well, do you?Copy !req
63. Of course.Copy !req
64. It's a magic train.Copy !req
65. - We're going to the North Pole.
- I know it's a magic train.Copy !req
66. It's a Baldwin 2-8-4 S3-class
steam locomotive,Copy !req
67. built in 1931 at the Baldwin Locomotive.
It weighs 456,100 pounds and...Copy !req
68. Are we really going to the North Pole?Copy !req
69. - Hey, look!
- Isn't that wonderful?Copy !req
70. Herpolsheimer's! Herpolsheimer's!Copy !req
71. Wow, look at all those presents.
I want all of them.Copy !req
72. It's so Christmassy and cozy
and beautiful!Copy !req
73. Tickets.Copy !req

75. Tickets.Copy !req
76. Ticket, please.Copy !req

78. Try your other pocket.Copy !req
79. Thank you, sir.Copy !req
80. Hey, watch out, there.Copy !req
81. Thank you, sir.Copy !req
82. That is a public-address microphone.
It is not a toy.Copy !req
83. Boy, that guy sure likes to show off.Copy !req
84. Look what that wise guy
punched on my ticket.Copy !req
85. - "L-E." What the heck does that mean?
- Next stop, 11344 Edbrooke.Copy !req
86. We're heading for the other side
of the tracks.Copy !req
87. Well? You coming?Copy !req
88. It's just another pickup.Copy !req
89. That's weird. I thought you were
supposed to be the last one.Copy !req
90. Why, to the North Pole, of course.Copy !req
91. This is the Polar Express.Copy !req
92. Suit yourself.Copy !req
93. Hey, that kid wants to get on the train.Copy !req
94. Come on!Copy !req
95. Hurry up!Copy !req
96. We have to stop the train.Copy !req
97. - I don't know how.
- Pull the emergency brake!Copy !req
98. Who in the blazes
applied that emergency brake?Copy !req
99. He did.Copy !req
100. You.Copy !req
101. In case you didn't know,
that cord is for emergency purposes only.Copy !req
102. And in case you weren't aware,
tonight is Christmas Eve.Copy !req
103. And in case you hadn't noticed,
this train is on a very tight schedule.Copy !req
104. Now, Christmas may not be
important to some people,Copy !req
105. but it is very important
to the rest of us!Copy !req
106. But...Copy !req
107. He was just trying to stop the train
so that kid could get on.Copy !req
108. I see. Young man, is that what happened?Copy !req
109. Well,Copy !req
110. let me remind you
we are on a very tight schedule.Copy !req
111. And I've never been late before,Copy !req
112. and I am certainly not
going to be late tonight.Copy !req
113. Now, everybody, take your seats, please!Copy !req
114. Thank you.Copy !req
115. Your attention, please.Copy !req
116. Are there any Polar Express passengers
in need of refreshment?Copy !req

149. You know, Montezuma,
the king of the AztecsCopy !req
150. would drink 50 quarts
of hot chocolate every day.Copy !req
151. It was thick as mud and red.
He put chili pepper in instead of sugar.Copy !req
152. - Get it? Hot chocolate?
- How do you know? That's not true.Copy !req
153. - Where you going with that?
- It's for him.Copy !req
154. - I don't think we're to leave our seats.
- It's a violation of safety regulationsCopy !req
155. for a kid to cross moving cars
without a grown-up.Copy !req
156. I think I'll be okay.Copy !req
157. Are you sure?Copy !req
158. What about this lad in the back?
Did he get any refreshment?Copy !req
159. Well, let's take some to him,
by all means.Copy !req
160. Watch your step, now. Watch your step.Copy !req
161. She forgot her ticket.Copy !req
162. It hasn't been punched.Copy !req
163. What are you doing?
You're gonna get us in trouble!Copy !req
164. Young lady, forgive me.Copy !req
165. I believe I have neglected
to punch your ticket.Copy !req
166. May I?Copy !req
167. I left my ticket right here on the seat.Copy !req
168. - But it's gone.
- You meanCopy !req
169. you have lost your ticket.Copy !req
170. She didn't lose her ticket.Copy !req
171. I did.Copy !req
172. I was trying to return it to you.Copy !req
173. But the wind blew it out of my hand.Copy !req
174. You can have my ticket.Copy !req
175. These tickets are not transferable.Copy !req
176. Young lady,Copy !req
177. you will just have to come along with me.Copy !req
178. You know what's gonna happen now?
He's gonna throw her off the train.Copy !req
179. He's gonna probably throw her
off the rear platform.Copy !req
180. Standard procedure. That way,
she won't get sucked under the wheels.Copy !req
181. They may slow the train down,
but they're never gonna stop it.Copy !req
182. Stop it?Copy !req
183. That's it! I have to stop the train again.Copy !req
184. No, please, don't do that again.Copy !req
185. Where'd they go?Copy !req
186. What happened to them?Copy !req
187. Please, she's in big trouble.
You have to help me.Copy !req
188. Hey!Copy !req
189. Hey!Copy !req
190. I found your ticket! Wait!Copy !req
191. Hey!Copy !req
192. Wait!Copy !req
193. I have your ticket!Copy !req
194. Is there something I can do for you?Copy !req
195. I'm looking for a girl.Copy !req
196. A girl...Copy !req
197. Ain't we all?Copy !req
198. I have her ticket.Copy !req
199. Well, lookie. Lookie here. What is this?Copy !req
200. This is an official, authentic,
genuine ticket to ride.Copy !req
201. You better keep this
in a safe place, young man.Copy !req
202. If I was you...Copy !req
203. I keep all my valuables right here.Copy !req
204. Right here in the old size 13.Copy !req
205. Experience shows this is the safest place.Copy !req
206. Not that I have much use for those.Copy !req
207. Tickets.Copy !req
208. I ride for free.Copy !req
209. Oh, yeah. I hop aboard this rattler
any time I feels like it.Copy !req
210. I own this train. Oh, yeah.Copy !req
211. It's like I'm the king of this train.
Yeah. The king of the Pol Ex.Copy !req
212. In fact, I am the king of the North Pole!Copy !req
213. Oh, where's my manners? Sit, sit. Sit.Copy !req
214. Take a load off.Copy !req
215. Hey, would you like some Joe?Copy !req
216. Nice hot refreshment.
Perfect for a cold winter's night.Copy !req
217. There. Bless you.Copy !req
218. What about Santa?Copy !req
219. - Santa?
- Isn't he the king of the North Pole?Copy !req
220. You mean this guy?Copy !req
221. What exactly is your persuasion
on the big man?Copy !req
222. Since you brought him up.Copy !req
223. Well,Copy !req
224. I want to believe.Copy !req
225. - But...
- But you don't wanna be bamboozled.Copy !req
226. You don't wanna be
led down the primrose path.Copy !req
227. You don't wanna be conned or duped,
have the wool pulled over your eyes.Copy !req
228. Hoodwinked. You don't wanna be
taken for a ride, railroaded.Copy !req
229. Seeing is believing.Copy !req
230. Am I right?Copy !req
231. But what about this train?Copy !req
232. What about it?Copy !req
233. We're all really going to the North Pole,Copy !req
234. aren't we?Copy !req
235. Aren't we?Copy !req
236. Are you saying
that this is all just a dream?Copy !req
237. You said it, kid. Not me.Copy !req
238. So, let's go find that girl.Copy !req
239. One other thing.Copy !req
240. Do you believe in ghosts?Copy !req
241. Interesting.Copy !req
242. Wait.Copy !req
243. Wait!Copy !req
244. Wait!Copy !req
245. I have to wake up.Copy !req
246. Yeah. I have to wake up.Copy !req
247. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up.Copy !req
248. Wake up!Copy !req
249. Kid!Copy !req
250. Kid, get your head out of the clouds!Copy !req
251. Wake up, kid!Copy !req
252. There's no sleepwalking
on the Polar Express.Copy !req
253. We gotta jump them knuckles.Copy !req
254. Come on, kid. Flip my shoulders.Copy !req
255. Grab my lily.Copy !req
256. That skirt you're chasing
must have moved ahead.Copy !req
257. - We gotta hightail it to the hog, pronto.
- To the hog?Copy !req
258. The engine. The engine, you tenderfoot.Copy !req
259. We gotta make the engine
before we hit Flat Top Tunnel.Copy !req
260. How come?Copy !req
261. So many questions.Copy !req
262. There is but one inch of clearance
between the roof of this rattlerCopy !req
263. and the roof of Flat Top Tunnel.Copy !req
264. Savvy?Copy !req
265. It's just the run up to the hump, kid.Copy !req
266. This will be interesting.Copy !req
267. Get back on, kid. Hurry!Copy !req
268. Grab my muck stick.Copy !req
269. There's only one trick to this, kid.Copy !req
270. When I say jump,Copy !req
271. you jump!Copy !req
272. You. I thought you got thrown off, and...Copy !req
273. - You're driving the train?
- They put me in charge.Copy !req
274. - The engineer had to check the light.
- Here's the light. Careful.Copy !req
275. All right, now.Copy !req
276. I got it.Copy !req
277. - How do you know how?
- It's easy. Come here, I'll show you.Copy !req
278. This big lever here, that's the throttle.Copy !req
279. This little one here, that's the brake.Copy !req
280. And those are the pressure gauges.Copy !req
281. And that rope is the whistle.Copy !req
282. The whistle?Copy !req
283. You wanna try it?Copy !req
284. I've wanted to do that my whole life.Copy !req
285. Hold still! Hold still! Don't move!Copy !req
286. Look!Copy !req
287. Stop the train! Stop the train!Copy !req
288. Stop the train!Copy !req
289. What?Copy !req
290. They want us to stop the train.Copy !req
291. - Which one is the brake?
- He told me this was the brake.Copy !req
292. - Who?
- The engineer.Copy !req
293. - The engineer? This one looks like a brake.
- Yes. No, he said this was the brake.Copy !req
294. Are you sure?Copy !req
295. Are you sure?Copy !req
296. Pull the brake!Copy !req
297. Stop the train!Copy !req
298. Caribou?Copy !req
299. There can be no Christmas without
the Polar Express arriving on time.Copy !req
300. Am I the only one who understands that?Copy !req
301. You. I should have known.Copy !req
302. Are you bound that this train
never reaches the North Pole?Copy !req
303. But look.Copy !req
304. Caribou crossing?Copy !req
305. I make that herd to be at least 100,000,
maybe even a million.Copy !req
306. It's gonna be hours
before they clear this track.Copy !req
307. - A tough nut to crack.
- We are in some serious jelly.Copy !req
308. - And a jam.
- Tight spot.Copy !req
309. - Up a creek.
- Up a tree.Copy !req
310. - Lost in the grass.
- I'll tell you what's grass: Our...Copy !req
311. Problem solved. All ahead, slow.Copy !req
312. We're going pretty fast.Copy !req
313. Tell the engineer to slow down.Copy !req
314. Slow it down.Copy !req
315. Watch the speed!Copy !req
316. Jumping jeepers,
the cotter pin sheared off.Copy !req
317. - What?
- The pin.Copy !req
318. - Where?
- There.Copy !req
319. Oh, no.Copy !req
320. - They can't hear me.
- They can't?Copy !req
321. I don't like the look of this.
Under the safety bar.Copy !req
322. Is everything all right?
What should we do?Copy !req
323. Considering we've lost communication
with the engineer,Copy !req
324. we are standing totally exposed
on the front of the locomotive,Copy !req
325. the train appears to be
accelerating uncontrollably,Copy !req
326. and we are rapidly
approaching Glacier GulchCopy !req
327. which happens to be
the steepest downhill grade in the world,Copy !req
328. I suggest we all hold onCopy !req
329. tightly.Copy !req
330. The pin.Copy !req
331. Jiminy Christmas,
the ice has frozen over the tracks.Copy !req
332. Hold on. Hold on. No, no.Copy !req
333. Come on. Watch your step.Copy !req
334. Come on, sweetie. Up you go. Up you go.Copy !req
335. Put your feet on here. On here.Copy !req
336. Little adventure, huh?Copy !req
337. Young man, quick thinking on your part.Copy !req
338. Step to your left, please. To your left.Copy !req
339. Well, that is more like it.Copy !req
340. What in the name of Mike?Copy !req
341. Look.Copy !req
342. Get us the blazes out of here!Copy !req
343. Turn this sled around.Copy !req
344. Look there.Copy !req
345. Tracks.Copy !req
346. Dead ahead.Copy !req
347. Right.Copy !req
348. Left.Copy !req
349. Right.Copy !req
350. Hang a Louie.Copy !req
351. Toss a Ritchie.Copy !req
352. Port astern.Copy !req
353. To the starboard.Copy !req
354. - My slipper.
- You're gonna lose your ticket.Copy !req
355. It's not my ticket, it's yours.Copy !req
356. - It's my ticket?
- Yes.Copy !req
357. Right. Keep up with me. Left.Copy !req
358. Right. Left.Copy !req
359. Right.Copy !req
360. Left.Copy !req
361. Right.Copy !req
362. Left. Right.Copy !req
363. Oh, no!Copy !req
364. Brace yourselves!Copy !req
365. Well, that's more like it.Copy !req
366. Thank you.Copy !req
367. Thank you.
I can't believe you found my ticket.Copy !req
368. Did someone say they found a ticket?Copy !req
369. Well, in that case, tickets, please.Copy !req
370. Thank you.Copy !req
371. - "L-E"?
- Just like that know-it-all kid.Copy !req
372. Watch your step. Tricky walking up here.Copy !req
373. It's mighty slick.
Mighty slick, I tell you.Copy !req
374. There you go. What did I tell you?Copy !req
375. Years ago, on my first Christmas Eve run,
I was up on the roof making my roundsCopy !req
376. when I slipped on the ice myself.Copy !req
377. I reached out for a hand iron,
but it broke off. I slid and fell.Copy !req
378. And yet, I did not fall off this train.Copy !req
379. Someone saved you?Copy !req
380. Or something.Copy !req
381. An angel.Copy !req
382. Maybe.Copy !req
383. Wait. Wait.Copy !req
384. What did he look like? Did you see him?Copy !req
385. No, sir.
But sometimes seeing is believing.Copy !req
386. And sometimes the most real things
are the things we can't see.Copy !req
387. The forsaken and the abandoned.Copy !req
388. Mind your step, now.
These poor toys have suffered enoughCopy !req
389. being left to rust and decay in alleys
and vacant lots of the world.Copy !req
390. - What are they doing here?
- It's a new concept the boss came up with.Copy !req
391. Instead of being thrown away,
they're collected. Refurbished.Copy !req
392. He calls it "rebicycling."
Something like that.Copy !req
393. Makes me wanna cryCopy !req
394. seeing toys that were treated this way.Copy !req
395. These hopelessly entangled
string puppets and marionettesCopy !req
396. pose a particular problem.
We found the fingers of our work forceCopy !req
397. here at the North Pole are best
for working out those knots and tangles.Copy !req
398. Thank you. Double-locked here.Copy !req
399. You are just like me, my friend.Copy !req
400. A scrooge!Copy !req
401. Ebenezer Scrooge.Copy !req
402. North Pole, Santa Claus, this train...Copy !req
403. It's all a bunch of humbug.
A bout of indigestion.Copy !req
404. Oh, yeah. I know what you are.Copy !req
405. You're a doubter.Copy !req
406. A doubter. You don't believe!Copy !req
407. You're a doubter! You don't believe!Copy !req
408. You missed it.
We rode down some really sharp hills.Copy !req
409. We were on what looked like a frozen lake.
But I know it was just an illusion.Copy !req
410. He said the train was on ice.
I said it's impossible.Copy !req
411. You can't put a train track...
Where you going now?Copy !req
412. I'm wishing on a starCopy !req
413. And trying to believeCopy !req
414. That even though it's farCopy !req
415. He'll find me Christmas EveCopy !req
416. I guess that Santa's busyCopy !req
417. 'Cause he's never come aroundCopy !req
418. I think of him
When Christmas comes to townCopy !req
419. The best time of the yearCopy !req
420. When everyone comes homeCopy !req
421. With all this Christmas cheerCopy !req
422. It's hard to be aloneCopy !req
423. Putting up the Christmas tree
With friends who come aroundCopy !req
