Santa Claus Spotted Riding Metrolink in Claremont

More than 300 crammed into the Claremont Train Depot Sunday to welcome in Metrolink's Holiday Toy Express.

It was feeling a lot like Christmas in Claremont on Sunday with the arrival of the Metrolink Holiday Toy Express.

More than 300 people crammed into the area around the small Claremont Train Depot to watch the elaborately decorated Metrolink train. The Metrolink cars featured more than 50,000 twinkling lights.

Santa and Mrs. Claus attended to perform a skit that thanked the crowd for donating to the Spark of Love Toy Drive sponsored by ABC Channel 7, firefighters across Southern California and Metrolink.

In case you missed it, the train will be rolling through other nearby, and not so nearby, towns.

@Muslim radicals are the problem here. This jihad/war whatever the hell you want to call it, willRead More never end in our lifetime. Ultimately the Muslims will win. Look no further than Europe. Unless there is a full fledged worldwide war, they really can't be stopped. Their numbers are too great. What we are doing in Afghanistan is nothing more than swatting away a bee every time one flies out of the hive. But there are millions still in the hive. Unless we close our borders to people from the Middle East and parts of Eastern Europe, what happened in Boston will continue. It's not racist to not like Muslims just like it wasn't racist to not like the Russians during the Cold War or Germans during WWII.

Thanks to these two scum brothers, I can no longer transport my hearty meals in my trusty pressureRead More cooker via backpack. As an alternative, I tried to fit a crock pot, but it ruined my backpack zipper and made a meatball/marinara mess inside my backpack; even making way into the USB ports of my laptop. Sorry, tupperware won't cut it. It just gets too hot and eventually leaves a huge welt on my back.
