Holiday Garden Railway

Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania

Sun, Dec 4, 2011 - Sat, Dec 31, 2011, 10am - 4pm

Tickets: $16-$0

Visitors of all ages will be wow-ed by a quarter mile of track featuring seven loops and tunnels with fifteen different rail lines and two cable cars, nine bridges (including a trestle bridge you can walk under), and bustling model trains, all set in the lovely winter garden of the Morris Arboretum.


A special Holiday Garden Railway Grand Opening Celebration will be held on Saturday, November 26 from 1-3pm that will include the sounds of carolers. Kids and adults will also have the opportunity to make an ornament or decoration from natural materials to take home.  The Holiday Garden Railway is a great way to kick off the season and also serves as a fabulous backdrop for your holiday greeting card, so bring your camera!
