New York Botanical Garden Rolls Out Holiday Train Show This Weekend



(The Bronx, NY)  --  An annual holiday attraction rolls out this weekend at the New York Botanical Garden.  Model trains pull through a scaled-down version of the city, all made out of leaves, berries, tree branches, and vines.  The display features notable landmarks in the five boroughs, including Yankee Stadium, the Empire State Building, City Hall, and the original Penn Station.  Karen Daubmann is the director of exhibits at the New York Botanical Garden and says this year's attraction is a work of art.

The leafy creation took over eleven-hundred-hours to piece together for an 18th year.  The train show opens today and runs through January 10th.
