I love garden railroads. We have a real nice one here but it's actually at a garden nursery. In the spring there sometimes is a tour of all the garden railroads in San Diego County. I've never been on it, though, because it costs too much.

Roy, this brings back memories of many years ago. We had a place on old 22 pass Hamburg that had a great train area.

Thanks for stopping by. We are having a rainy day in Maryland so it is good to have your comments to brighten up the afternoon. Dolores and I love Longwood Gardens and recommend a visit to you. If you are not familiar with the Brandywine River area, there are multiple attractions and it is easy to spend several days in the area.

Happy Holidays! Happy New Year!

Hi Roy, these photos are wonderful. I have been to Longwood as I mentioned but I have never seen the railroad. Is it displayed only over the holidays?

William: The Garden Railway is also on exhibit at other times of the year. Check the website when you are planning your visit.
