Holiday Train Show

As has become our tradition, we made our way up to the Bronx to visit the New York Botanical Garden's annual Holiday Train Show. Dozens of New York landmarks--the Brooklyn Bridge, City Hall, and the Statue of Liberty among them--made entirely out of plants and other organic materials form the backdrop for a variety of model trains speeding through the conservatory. For the first time, the train show ran after dark, with carolers and Christmas lights adding to the festive spirit.
