Celebrating its 26th year, the New York Botanical Garden’s Holiday Train Show showcased Midtown Manhattan during a media preview on Monday, November 21. New replicas of the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, General Electric Building and St. Bartholomew’s Church joined NYBG’s collection of more than 150 New York buildings and landmarks constructed from plants and enlivened by large-scale model trains. The holiday train show keeps on chugging until Monday, January 15. For additional information, visit www.nybg.org/
