Rudolph who? With less than a month until Christmas, Santa Claus appears to be thinking of leaving his reindeer at the North Pole this year. He was spotted Tuesday testing a new delivery system, a pedal-powered railcar, near Mellensee in the German state of Brandenburg. As he sped past a handcar crossing sign, a photographer caught a glimpse of some of the presents he will deliver to children across the world this Christmas Eve.
