Welcome to the Neighborhood.
Every December, a little corner of Norcross, Georgia transforms into Atlanta's most magical Christmas tradition. The Neighborhood Christmas Train Experience is a hands-on family event where kids don't just watch model trains — they run them. Set across over 4,000 square feet of snow-covered villages, Lionel train layouts, and a LEGO® Brick Whistlestop™, the NCT Experience is built for wonder, packed with surprises, and priced so every family can come through the door.
Your timed entry ticket keeps it intimate. Every visit feels like the neighborhood is yours.
Junior Engineers
Kids put on engineer caps and operate real Polar Express and Harry Potter Hogwarts Express trains in the Engineer Train Center.
LEGO® Brick Whistlestop™

Free Hot Wheels
Every kid ages 5–12 picks a brand-new Hot Wheels car to drive around the Neighborhood and take home. Included with every ticket.
VR Experience
NEW! Shrink down to ride the world's smallest and largest steam train. That's I've Been Shrinking on the Railroad!
Special Events
Jazz nights, New Year's Eve countdowns, and more. Something special is always happening in the Neighborhood.
Private Parties
Reserve the Neighborhood for your group — drinks, a bartender, and Atlanta's largest Christmas train village all to yourselves.
Your ticket does more than get you in the door.
Every family who visits the Neighborhood Christmas Train helps families in need right here in Gwinnett County. A portion of every ticket goes to the Neighborhood Cooperative Ministries; providing food, medical assistance, and emergency support to those who need it most.
Enjoy our neighborhood while helping yours.
