REGION- The Santa Train made its way to us again this year in early December. It made stops at the Standish Railroad Depot, the West Branch Chamber of Commerce grounds, the Roscommon Depot, and the Crawford County Historical Society. Children lined up for a photo opportunity with the big guy in red and enjoyed the holiday festivities each community had to offer.
