The Rockettes will board the two holiday trains to Penn Station and hand out candy canes to passengers. At Penn Station, already decked out for the holidays, the Rockettes will join Santa Claus from 11 AM to 2 PM at the 34 th Street Entrance at Penn Station, customers will also have an opportunity to win prizes in a holiday “Spin & Win” game.
