NYBG Train Show Buildings 1 of 2

I photographed these at the Holiday Train Show® | New York Botanical Garden. The last three photographs are of places where I briefly acted as a tour guide. At that time, I was an Urban Park Ranger (1989 to 1991). When we opened the Little Red Lighthouse – Wikipedia to visitors, I met an old fellow. He used to swim there before the George Washington Bridge was built in 1931.

    I am in awe! What a (literally) fabulous world — the stuff of fables. Thank you for this!

      The NY Botanical Garden does a train show every year.

        My claim to fame is having studied Botanical Illustration with an instructor who earned her certification at the NYBG. It was a very demanding discipline, and, though I’ve never been there, I have an abiding awe of it just from that coursework.
