For the 20th year, a Christmas dream comes true. Saturday, November 19, 2011 - Monday, January 16, 2012. Admission to the Holiday Train Show in the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory by advance timed ticket. Tickets sold in 15-minute increments.More than a dozen large-scale model railway trains—from late-1800s American steam engines and streetcars to modern freight and high-speed passenger trains and trolleys—traverse nearly a quarter-mile of track across rustic bridges, along overhead trestles, through tunnels, and past waterfalls that cascade into flowing creeks. More than 140 scaled iconic buildings, including the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, Radio City Music Hall, and the original Yankee Stadium. Thomas the Tank Engine™ returns to join the fleet of model trains this year. This year, for the first time, visitors to The Artist’s Studio will get an insider’s look at how the replicas are constructed.Photo by Robert Benson.
