The film received three Academy Award nominations and won a Grammy for the song "Believe" performed by Josh Groban.

Hanks played five distinct roles, including the Hero Boy (motion capture), the Conductor, the Hobo, the Father, and Santa Claus.

The locomotive was modeled after the real Pere Marquette 1225 steam engine, and actual recordings of that train were used for the film's sound.

Despite initial technical criticisms, it has become a modern holiday classic and inspired real-life "Polar Express" train rides at heritage railways worldwide. THE POLAR EXPRESS™
