The Pneumatic is a very fast form of transportation Santa Claus' elves use to travel around the North Pole from the 2004 animated film, The Polar Express.

Role in the Film[]

In the film, while lost in the North Pole, Hero Boy, Hero Girl, and Billy (unknowingly followed by Know-It-All) arrive at the Communications Room where they see a few elves doing some last minute work. After they finish, they take the pneumatic to get to the Square with one of the elves noting that it is the only way to get there on time. The children decide to take the pneumatic too, but they end up in the Sorting Room instead.

Other Appearances[]

The Polar Express: The Video Game[]

One of the levels in the video game requires the player to operate the pneumatic and make sure it hits the right colored switches, which are either blue, green, or yellow, in order to open the correct gates.
