Since its publication in 1985, Chris Van Allsburg's The Polar Express has touched the hearts of millions of readers, young and old. Whether viewed on the big screen or the printed page, The Polar Express is a heartwarming story about the power of belief that resonates across generations and cultures.

The Polar Express is a revolutionary animated feature film. It features Tom Hanks in 5 different rolls. WebcastingTV's EMS (Email Marketing System) features strong "viral marketing" capabilities and delivers a high quality video stream.
