Celebrate the 20+ year tradition of Longwood Gardens’ whimsical, wonderful Garden Railway. This multi-level world in miniature is on display, complete with a beautiful seasonally changing plant palette. See their collection of dozens of locomotives, steam engines, diesel engines, and specialty engines—as well as the ever-popular Thomas the Tank Engine and many of his friends—as they rumble along nearly 500 feet of track amid textural foliage, flowering plants, and woody plants. On view through their Chrysanthemum Festival and A Longwood Christmas seasons, a perfectly fanciful blend of horticulture, engineering, and lighthearted fun awaits guests of all ages with this very special display located outdoors near the Terrace Restaurant. Free with Gardens admission.
