All aboard the Holiday Train Show

Hop aboard and see the annual Holiday Train Show at the New York Botanical Garden now through Jan. 13, 2013.

The enchanting setting of the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory features more than 140 scaled iconic buildings and structures under thousands of twinkling lights. Crafted by Paul Busse’s team at Applie Imagination, the landmarks are made of natural materials such as bark, twigs, stems, fruits, and seeds. It’s a sight to behold the miniature Penn Station, Yankee Stadium, Radio City Music Hall, and St. Patrick’s Cathedral — among others — as the model train zips through the scaled-down city.

The exhibit is open Tuesdays through Sundays from 10 am until 5 pm through Jan. 13, 2013. Visit the website to purchase tickets to the annual holiday show.
