A doubter. You don't believe!
A gi...?
A lady of decision.
A present.
A well oiled machine.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Actually it's a Baldwin 2 8 4 S3 class steam locomotive...
Ah, it's just another pickup.
Ah, the forsaken and the abandoned.
Ah, yes.
Ah!
Ah! Jumping jeepers, the cotter pin sheared off.
Ah.
Ain't we all?
All aboard!
All aboard!
All I found was one present. All it had was stupid underwear.
All right, boys.
All right, now.
All right, you stowaways.
All right, you. Ticket, please.
All the things I've heard about But never really seen
Am I right?
Am I the only one who understands that?
An angel.
An express train wouldn't wake him up now.
And a smidgen of humility might also serve you well.
And all the dreams of children
And Billy.
And do you see? Those lights in the distance.
And I've never been late before...
And in case you hadn't noticed, this train is on a very tight schedule.
And in case you weren't aware, tonight is Christmas Eve.
And merry Christmas.
And please brush after every meal.
And sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see.
And speaking of gifts...
And that rope is the whistle.
And those are the pressure gauges.
And trying to believe
And you made your sister put out the milk and cookies. Mm mm.
And you, young lady....
Apparently, some kid from Maplewood, New Jersey...
Are there any Polar Express passengers in need of refreshment?
Are we really going to the North Pole?
Are you bound and determined that this train never reaches the North Pole?
Are you saying that this is all just a dream?
Are you sure?
Are you sure?
Aren't those bells the most beautiful sound?
Aren't we?
As in leader, leadership.
At your convenience, of course.
Better fix that hole in your pocket.
Better keep that in a safe place.
Boom, boom, boom Laughing all the way
Boom, boom, boom Laughing all the way
BOY 1: Come on, let's see the bell. Show us the bell.
BOY 2: Where is it? I lost it.
BOY 3: It's gone?
Brace yourselves!
Broken. Huh?
But as years passed, it fell silent for all of them.
But Christmas is such a wonderful, beautiful time.
But I know it was just an optical illusion caused by moonlight.
But look.
But put him on the check twice list for next year.
But since it's Christmas, I'm gonna let you slide.
But the wind blew it out of my hand.
But what about this train?
But... But...
Careful.
Caribou crossing?!
Checking out my presents. Making sure I'm getting everything on my list.
Christmas just doesn't work out for me. Never has.
Christmas spirit.
Come on, come on, come on. I've got a schedule to keep... Oh.
Come on, kid. Flip my shoulders.
Come on, out you go.
Come on, shorty!
Come on, sweetie. Up you go. Up you go.
Come on!
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on. Watch your step.
CONDUCTOR [MUFFLED]: Merry Christmas!
CONDUCTOR: 11 344 Edbrooke.
CONDUCTOR: All aboard!
CONDUCTOR: All right. All right, ladies and gentlemen.
CONDUCTOR: Hey. You three.
CONDUCTOR: I don't like the look of this. Quick, under the safety bar.
CONDUCTOR: Remember to duck and cover.
CONDUCTOR: That is some special ticket.
CONDUCTOR: These hopelessly entangled...
CONDUCTOR: They are gathering in the center of the city.
CONDUCTOR: Tickets.
CONDUCTOR: Watch your step.
CONDUCTOR: Well? You coming?
CONDUCTOR: Young lady, forgive me.
Could all this be nothing but a dream?
Could all...?
CROWD: More altitude!
Cutting it kind of close, aren't we?
DAD: All right. All right, Sarah...
DAD: He's gotta be asleep by now.
DAD: Of course Santa's for real. He's as real as Christmas itself.
DAD: Santa will be here before you know it.
DAD: See, he's out like a light.
DAD: Think those days are just about over.
DAD: Yeah, an end of the magic.
DAD: Your brother said that? He was just kidding you. He knows there's a Santa.
Dead ahead.
Devoid of life.
Did someone say they found a ticket?
Ding, ding, the bell will ring Golly, look at her go
Ding, ding, the bell will ring Golly, look at her go
Do not try that at home.
Do you believe in ghosts?
Do you know what kind of train this is? Well, do you?
Ebenezer Scrooge.
ELF [ON SPEAKER]: Altitude, please. A bit more altitude, please.
ELF [ON SPEAKER]: You may start your descent any time now.
ELF 1 : Ah, forget about it. We knew you was in there the whole time.
ELF 1 : There you go.
ELF 2: Let's go, come on. Step up, step up. There we go.
ELF 3: Beautiful form. Beautiful.
ELF GENERAL: Look, it's.... It's almost Christmas, huh?
ELF GENERAL: New Jersey? Is that the same kid that put the tack...
ELF: It's wrapped in candy striped red with a number seven holly green bow.
ELF: Yeah. Uh huh. Uh huh.
ELVES [SINGING]: It's the spirit of the season
ELVES: Geronimo!
ENGINEER: Pull the brake!
Even numbered birthdays on the right, odd numbered on the left.
Even Sarah found, one Christmas, that she could no longer hear its sweet sound.
Exactly. Columns of two.
Experience shows this is the safest place.
Follow you anywhere, ma'am.
Full of confidence and spirit.
Gee, that's really too bad.
Get back on, kid. Hurry!
Get down and be quiet.
Get us the blazes out of here!
Give me your other hand. Give me your other hand.
Good boy, Donder.
Good. Close.
Grab my lily.
Grab my muck stick.
Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Hang a Louie.
Has your name on it.
Have a wonderful Christmas.
He calls it rebicycling. Something like that.
He said Santa would have to fly faster than the speed of light...
He said the train was on ice. But I said that's impossible...
He was just trying to stop the train so that kid could get on.
He'll find me Christmas Eve
He's here! He's here!
Here's one more.
HERO BOY: My slipper. You're gonna lose your ticket.
HERO BOY: What bell? The sleigh bell.
HERO BOY: Where you going with that? It's for him.
HERO BOY: I don't know about this.
HERO BOY: Uh uh.
HERO BOY: Wait.
HERO BOY: We're gonna be okay.
HERO BOY: Where'd they go?
HERO BOY: You know what? I don't think we're gonna make it.
HERO GIRL: I don't know how. Pull the emergency brake!
HERO GIRL: I can't hold him.
HERO GIRL: I don't hear it. Do you?
HERO GIRL: L E? Hey, just like that know it all kid.
HERO GIRL: Makes me wanna cry...
HERO GIRL: Oh, no. HERO BOY: Uh oh.
HERO GIRL: Slow it down.
HERO GIRL: There should be elves. Where are the elves?
HERO GIRL: We're gonna crash!
HERO GIRL: We're gonna miss everything.
HERO GIRL: Yes, come with us.
HERO GIRL: Yes.
Herpolsheimer's! Herpolsheimer's!
Hey, are you saying I don't know how to...?
Hey, hey. Man alive, are you lucky.
Hey, what are you doing? You're gonna get us all in trouble!
Hey, what gives? It was five minutes till midnight four minutes ago.
Hey, what gives? It was five minutes till midnight four minutes ago.
Hey, where you going?
Hey, would you like some Joe?
Hey, you missed it. We rode down some really sharp hills.
Hey!
Hey!
Hey. Hey, you. Yeah, you. Do you know what kind of train this is?
Hey. Ow.
Hmm.
Ho ho ho, ho ho ho.
Ho ho ho.
HOBO: Kid!
HOBO: Take a break, kid.
Hold on. Hold on. No, no.
Hold still! Hold still! Don't move!
Hold this, please.
Home.
Hoodwinked. You don't wanna be taken for a ride, railroaded.
Hoping Santa's on his way
Hot chocolate Hot, hot
Hot chocolate Hot, hot
How about a nice, good hot cup of Joe?
How come?
Hurry up!
Hurry up. Hurry up!
I believe it also is pronounced lead.
I believe.
I believe.
I believe.
I believed I punched five.
I breathed slowly and silently.
I can't see him!
I can't see him.
I can't see him.
I did not rustle the sheets.
I did.
I didn't do it.
I didn't do it.
I found your ticket! Wait!
I guess that Santa's busy
I have her ticket.
I have your ticket!
I keep all my valuables right here.
I left my ticket right here on the seat.
I listen all around
I lost the bell from Santa's sleigh.
I make that herd to be at least 1 00,000, maybe even a million.
I may be just an old railroader...
I never hear a sound
I own this train. Oh, yeah.
I reached out for a hand iron, but it broke off. I slid and fell.
I ride for free.
I see him. He's over there.
I see you've made some new friends.
I see.
I see. Young man, is that what happened?
I think I know what it is. I wanted one of these my whole life.
I think I'll be okay.
I think of him when Christmas comes to town
I think we should follow those arrows.
I thought there'd be a way out.
I want to believe.
I was listening for a sound I was afraid I'd never hear.
I was trying to return it to you.
I... I believe that this is yours.
I'm looking for a girl.
I'm sorry about the bell.
I've wanted to do that my whole life.
If I was you....
If I were you, I would think about climbing onboard.
In case you didn't know, that cord is for emergency purposes only.
In fact, I am the king of the North Pole!
Instead of being thrown away, they're collected. Refurbished.
Is everything all right? What should we do?
Is there something I can do for you?
Is this you?
Isn't that amazing?
It doesn't matter where they're going.
It hasn't been punched.
It is amazing.
It is Billy?
It says lead. Like lead balloon.
It says, Merry Christmas, Billy. From Mr. C.
It was a really special present.
It was thick as mud and red. He put chili pepper in instead of sugar.
It's a magic train.
It's a time for giving and being thankful, for friends and family.
It's coming from that tunnel.
It's everything I dreamed it would be.
It's five minutes to midnight.
It's going to my town. To someone named Billy.
It's gone.
It's gonna be hours before they clear this track.
It's got my leg.
It's hard to be alone
It's like I'm the king of this train. Yeah. The king of the Pol Ex.
It's not my ticket, it's yours.
It's nothing I need to know.
It's so Christmassy and cozy and beautiful!
It's so much fun when Christmas comes to town
It's still five to. I think we're gonna make it.
It's the only way to get to the square on time.
It's the spirit of the season
It's the spirit of the season
It's the thought that counts.
Jiminy Christmas, the ice has frozen over the tracks.
Just remember...
Keep it cooking in the pot
Keep it cooking in the pot
Kid, get your head out of the clouds!
KID: Hey, watch out, there.
KID: Yeah, where are the elves?
KIDS: Me! Me! Me! I thought so.
KIDS: It's a magic carpet on a rail It never takes a rest
KNOW IT ALL: Hey, look, everybody! Mm hm. Isn't that wonderful?
KNOW IT ALL: Boy, that guy sure likes to show off.
KNOW IT ALL: Me, me. Pick me, Santa. HERO GIRL: What are you doing? Stop it.
KNOW IT ALL: No, please, don't do that again.
KNOW IT ALL: Yeah, let's see the bell.
Ladies and gentlemen, you do not have to hold hands...
Latitude 66◦33'. The Arctic Circle.
Lead the way.
Lean is spelled with four letters.
Lean. Whatever that's supposed to mean.
Left.
Left.
Left.
Lesson learned.
Let me remind you we are on a very tight schedule.
Let's shut it down, all right. That's it for this year. Come on.
Like a prayer
LONELY BOY [SINGING]: I'm wishing on a star
LONELY BOY: But I....
LONELY BOY: Don't worry.
Look there.
Look what that wise guy punched on my ticket.
Look, I don't know if Christmas is gonna work out for you or not...
Look!
Look.
Look.
Look.
Look.
May I?
Maybe not!
Maybe.
Merry Christmas!
Mind your step, now. These poor toys have suffered enough...
Mm hm.
Mom, Dad, look! He brought us all kinds of stuff!
Mom, Dad, wake up. Wake up!
MOM: But he won't come...
MOM: Come on, kids. We don't wanna be late.
MOM: He used to stay awake all night...
MOM: Merry Christmas, sweetheart.
MOM: Oh, what a beautiful bell. Who's it from?
MOM: That would be sad if that were true.
Mr. C.
NARRATOR: At one time, most of my friends could hear the bell.
NARRATOR: On Christmas Eve, many years ago...
Next stop, 11 344 Edbrooke.
Nice hot refreshment. Perfect for a cold winter's night.
Nice to see you again.
No one is required to see Santa.
No one will be sleeping
No pushing. No pushing. But let's not dilly dally.
No, sir. But sometimes seeing is believing.
No.
North Pole, Santa Claus, this train...
Not a problem. Come on. Watch your step. There you go.
Not that I have much use for those.
Now let's get you upstairs and into bed.
Now, dash away, dash away Dash away all
Now, Dasher. Now, Prancer and Vixen.
Now, everybody, take your seats, please!
Now, young man, Christmas may not be important to some people...
Now...
Of course we will. It's been five to for the last hour.
Oh, I'm sorry. It says learn. My mistake.
Oh, okay. Merry Christmas.
Oh, where's my manners? Sit, sit. Sit.
Oh, whoop... There you go. What did I tell you?
Oh, yeah, yeah. I hop aboard this rattler any time I feels like it.
Oh, yeah. I know what you are.
Oh, you better keep this in a safe place, young man.
Oh!
Oh.
Oh.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
On three again. One, two, three.
One other thing.
One thing about trains:
Or something.
People hang decorations and lights. Santa leaves presents under our Christmas trees.
Please, she's in big trouble. You have to help me.
Prancer, that's a girl.
Presents for the children Wrapped in red and green
Problem solved. All ahead, slow.
Pull, Comet. Pull, boy!
Putting up the Christmas tree with friends who come around
Ready, and mount.
Really?
Really.
Remember to eat the five basic food groups.
Right here in the old size 1 3.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right. Keep up with me. Left.
Right. Left.
SANTA: Found this on the seat of my sleigh.
SANTA: To the top of the roof To the top of the wall
Santa's been here! Santa's been here!
SARAH: But... But... But, I have to...
SARAH: This is the most beautiful est, most wonderful est Christmas ever.
Savvy?
Seeing is believing.
She didn't lose her ticket.
Shh.
Shh. You hear that?
Shorter in the front, taller in the rear.
Since you brought him up.
So can you count on us to get you home safe and sound?
So go to sleep.
So let's go find that girl.
So many questions.
So nobody gets hurt, here's how we're gonna get you guys down.
So, what do we do, chief? Alert the big man?
Something's got me.
Sorry about that, sport.
Sounds to me like this is your crucial year.
Standard procedure. That way, she won't get sucked under the wheels.
Stark, barren.
Step to your left, please. To your left.
STEVEN: I didn't do it.
Stop it?
Stop the train!
Stop the train!
Stop the train! Stop the train!
Suit yourself.
Suit yourself.
Sure is.
Sweet dreams.
Take a load off.
Tell the engineer to slow down.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you. I can't believe you found my ticket.
Thank you. Uh oh. Double locked here.
Thanks for stopping the train for me.
That even though it's far
That is where Santa will give the first gift of Christmas.
That skirt you're chasing must have moved on ahead.
That's a lucky lad.
That's all I want when Christmas comes to town
That's all I want when Christmas comes to town
That's it! I have to stop the train again.
That's my address.
That's my town. I'm from Grand Rapids.
That's the way we should go.
That's weird. I thought you were supposed to be the last one.
The bell.
The best time of the year
The emergency brake.
The engine. The engine, you tenderfoot.
The first gift of Christmas!
The Flying Elves.
The North Pole?
The place is hoppin' There ain't no stoppin'
There is but one inch of clearance between the roof of this rattler...
There. Bless you.
There's no brake. I can't find the brake!
There's no sleepwalking on the Polar Express.
There's only one trick to this, kid.
These tickets are not transferable.
They are specialists. Do not try that at home, kids.
They look like the lights of a strange ocean liner sailing on a frozen sea.
They may slow the train down, but they're never gonna stop it.
They want us to stop the train.
Things aren't bad enough. What's his 20?
This bell is a wonderful symbol of the spirit of Christmas...
This big lever here, that's the throttle.
This is an official, authentic, genuine ticket to ride.
This is the Polar Express.
This is the Polar Express.
This will be interesting.
Those are the rules.
Though I've grown old...
Ticket, please.
Ticket, please.
Ticket.

Tricky walking up here. It's mighty slick. Mighty slick, I tell you.
Trust me.
Try your other pocket.

Turn this sled around.
Two columns, if you please.
Uh uh uh. That is a public address microphone. It is not a toy.
VOICE: Doubter. Doubter.
Wait, wait. Stop. Look.

WAITERS: Here we only got one rule
WAITERS: Hot chocolate CONDUCTOR: Here we only got one rule
Wake up, kid!
Wake up, wake up. Wake up, wake up!
Wake up. Wake up. Santa's been here. Santa's been here.
Wake up. Wake up. Wake up.
Watch your step, now. Watch your step.
Watch your step, please.
Watch your step, please.
Watch your step.
We fell in here by mistake.
We gotta jump them knuckles.
We gotta make the engine before we hit Flat Top Tunnel.
We just crossed it.
We made it.
We talking nothing for Christmas here?
We were on what looked like a frozen lake.
We'll arrive with A bang, bang, bang
We'll cut the kid a break.
We'll go together.
We're all really going to the North Pole...
We're heading for the other side of the tracks.
We're not gonna make it.
We're spinning.
Well, considering the fact that we have lost communication with the engineer...
Well, I....
Well, in that case.... Tickets, please.
Well, let's take some to him, by all means.
Well, lookie. Lookie here. What is this?
Well, see you.
Well, that was the wrapping hall, chief.
Well, you know what they say.
Well? You coming?
Well? You coming?
Well...
Well....
Well....
What about it?
What about Santa?
What about this lad in the back? Did he get any refreshment?
What are they thinking down there? Are they meshuggener?
What did he look like? Did you see him?
What exactly is your persuasion on the big man?
What happened to them?
What in the name of Mike?
What matters is deciding to get on.
What was that you said?
What?
What?
What?
What?
When everyone comes home
When we get there We'll scream, Yay!
When we get there We'll scream, Yay!
Where?
Where?
Who gets the first gift of Christmas?
Who in the blazes applied that emergency brake?!
Whoo, whoo, the whistle blows That's the sound of her singing
Whoo, whoo, the whistle blows That's the sound of her singing
Why, to the North Pole, of course.
Wish it wouldn't ever have to end
With a comfy seat and lots to eat Boy, it's just the best
With all this Christmas cheer
Wow, look at all those presents. I want all of them.
Yeah, he's gonna probably throw her right off the rear platform.
Yeah, let's hurry out and find it right now.
Yeah, we'll help you. All of us.
Yeah.
Yeah. I have to wake up.
Years ago, on my first Christmas Eve run, I was up on the roof making my rounds...
Yes, indeed.
Yes, sir.

Yes. Indeed.
Yo, we got it
Yo, we got it
You are just like me, my friend.
You can feel it in the air

You can hear it if you listen
You can ride for free and join the fun If you just say yes
You can't put a train track... Hey, where you going now?
You don't wanna be conned or duped, have the wool pulled over your eyes.
You don't wanna be led down the primrose path.
You know what's gonna happen now? He's gonna throw her off the train.
You know, Montezuma, the king of the Aztecs...
You said it, kid. Not me.
You wanna try it?
You wonder if we'll get there soon Anybody's guess
You wonder if you'll get there soon Anybody's guess
You.
You.
You. I should have known.
You. I thought you got thrown off, and...
You're a doubter! You don't believe!
You're a doubter.
You're not supposed to be here in the first place.
Young lady...
Young man with all the questions.
Young man, quick thinking on your part.
Young man...
Your attention, please.
A scrooge! Ah!
A tough nut to crack. We are in some serious jelly.
And a jam. Tight spot.
But... But you don't wanna be bamboozled.
Come on, let's see the bell. GIRL 1: Let's see it.
Come on. ...but please remain in your columns...
Get it? Hot chocolate? KID: How do you know? That's not true.

I don't think we're to leave our seats. It's a violation of safety regulations...
I'll take care of this. Uh uh.
It says... Don't...
It's my ticket? Yes.
Just finished the last one. ELF GENERAL: How's it wrapped?
L E. What the heck does that mean? Next stop, 11 344 Edbrooke.

Santa. Santa?
Shh. Put your feet on here. On here.
Sleigh bell? Don't you hear it?
So we got it Hot, hot
So we got it Hot, hot
The engineer had to check the light. ENGINEER: Here's the light. Careful.
The engineer? This one looks like a brake. No, he said this was the brake.
The whistle. Mm hm.
Then you got Hot chocolate
They can't hear me. They can't? Oh....
This is simple. Why, I know... What do you know?
Ugh. CONDUCTOR: There's no Christmas...

Up a creek. Up a tree.
We gotta hightail it to the hog, pronto. To the hog?
We'll... We'll find it. BOY 4: Yeah, we'll find it.
We're going to the North Pole. KNOW IT ALL: I know it's a magic train.
What are you doing here? Same as you.
What? Come on.
What? The pin.
What's the routing? Going to the States.
Where? There.
Why can't I hear anything? Shh.
Yeah. Well, it says here...
Yes. I hear it. LONELY BOY: I hear it too.
You. You.
You're driving the train? They put me in charge.
...and I am certainly not going to be late tonight.
...and know nothing about lighter than air craft...
...and my friends.
...aren't we?
...as am I.
...being left to rust and decay in the back alleys and vacant lots of the world.
...built in 1 931 at the Baldwin Locomotive Works. It weighs 456,1 00 pounds and....
...but from my layman's perspective, you need more altitude!
...but it is very important to the rest of us!
...but this is Christmas Eve. Don't stay here by yourself.
...doesn't work out for me.
...for a kid to cross moving cars without a grown up.
...here at the North Pole are best for working out those knots and tangles.
...his sled would be bigger than an ocean liner.
...I suggest we all hold on...
...is the North Pole.
...it's all a bunch of humbug. A bout of indigestion.
...let's have this young fellow right here.
...patience.
...pose a particular problem. We found the nimble fingers of our work force...
...see you.
...seeing toys that were treated this way.
...string puppets and marionettes...
...stuck some gum in his sister's hair.
...the bell still rings for me.
...the train appears to be accelerating uncontrollably...
...the true spirit of Christmas...
...tightly!
...to get to every house in one night. And to hold everyone's presents...
...underneath his teacher's chair last year?
...until you're sound asleep, young lady.
...we are standing totally exposed on the front of the locomotive...
...when I slipped on the ice myself.
...which just happens to be the steepest downhill grade in the world...
...while we are in transit.
...without the Polar Express arriving on time.
...would drink 50 quarts of hot chocolate every day.
...you have lost your ticket.
...you jump!
...you will just have to come along with me.
