Description
The Morris Arboretum’s popular Garden Railway Display is returning again this winter as the 6th Annual Holiday Garden Railway Display. Visitors of all ages will be wow-ed by a quarter mile of track featuring eleven loops and seven tunnels with thirteen different rail lines which include two cog cars. There are fourteen bridges (including a trestle bridge you can walk under), and bustling G-scale model trains, all set in the lovely winter garden of the Morris Arboretum. The display and buildings are all made of natural materials – bark, leaves, twigs, hollow logs, mosses, acorns, dried flowers, seeds and stones – to form a perfectly proportioned miniature landscape complete with a waterfall. Each building, while an exact replica of the original, is unique in its design.
