"This is the most hopeless place in the world!" Hilda intones as she and Snatch, her assistant, argue over what time it is

She dreams of faraway places and only finds tedium in running the Holly Railway Station

That is, until Leo Tannenbaum drops in out of nowhere the day before Christmas Eve

Suddenly, an old radio that hasn't worked in years springs to life, the local group of carolers (which usually yowls like a gang of wet cats) begins to sound like the Morman Tabernacle Choir and the whole town gets the Christmas spirit

Coincidence? Or is Leo doing all this? Even Snatch changes his tune when it turns out that Leo might be on the run

This nostalgic theatrical greeting card is full of eccentric small town characters, wise-cracking their way to finding the true wonder of Christmas

And on the way they make us all wish we could take a ride on The Christmas Express
