Christmas is still five weeks away, but Santa is already spreading joy and presents to kids in three states.
Each year, the Santa Train, with this year's guest Wynonna Judd, travels across the mountains delivering toys and other goods.
The train made 14 stops Saturday. First, it made three in Kentucky. Santa delivered presents to children in Shelbiana, Marrowbone, then Elkhorn City.
After leaving Kentucky, the train made ten stops in Virginia, before finally arriving at its final destination in Kingsport, Tennessee.

Wynonna was not at the Shelbiana stop. She has also said that she is against mountaintop mining just like her sister and other country artists. We don't need to purchase their music...or even listen to it. Our "coal earned" money should not be filling their pockets.

You know the whole point of Wynonna agreeing to be on the Santa Train is to appear at every stop and hand out presents, Not be diva like and only appear When she wants to I know of 2 stops she made NO appearance. Learn the meaning of charity Wynonna and the reason for you being there. Charitable acts don't work on your watch alone. Patty Loveless and Kathy Mattea Didn't do the people of Appalachia this way. Why don't you go back to LA with your sister, who only comes to KY. to spout the evils of mountaintop mining, only to leave and never come back except for the ocasional Basketball game. Remember Wynonna, the people of Appalachia made you, If all you can do is only appear when it is conveniant for you then stay in Tennessee. We don't need You. Hope you never come back here!!!!!
