"Allll aboard!'" Garden visitors, young and old, will be echoing that familiar call during the Train Tracks in Your Backyard Garden model train show on April 14 and 15, 9:00am to 5:00pm at the Rio Grande Botanic Garden. Enthusiasts from the New Mexico Garden RailRoaders Club will demonstrate how to bring backyard gardens to life with motion and sound through the use of miniature, G-scale trains and their unique, complementary landscape. The show and demonstrations are included with regular Botanic Garden admission (adult $7; child/senior $3).

They will be available to give advice on how to get started installing trains in personal gardens and will have photo tours of the best garden train layouts in the state. They'll also share background stories about the Botanic Garden's permanent garden railroad display, with its village and mining scenes, to make the complex come alive for visitors. Train Tracks in Your Backyard Garden will get everyone on track to have a dynamic garden this summer.
