Polar Express arrives on time

It was all aboard the Polar Express in the city Saturday. Next stop … Braintree.

Teens from Boys & Girls Clubs of Dorchester’s Keystone Club helped decorate a Keolis-run MBTA commuter rail train for the seasonal treat.

Bob Scannell, president and CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Dorchester, said the event is “a great day” for the teens and kids.

“The kids have a wonderful time and so do the teens who volunteer for the whole day,” he added. “It’s an inspiring day for everybody.”
