The Arboretum's Train Garden consists of 3 separate layouts with 10 different tracks. Landscaped with miniature towns, water features, bridges and hills, each track brings a unique feature that people of all ages come to enjoy. Our train operators can select from an inventory of over 50 locomotives and 150 pieces of rolling stock to entertain our visitors. The Train Garden is a favorite feature at the Arboretum. If you enjoy running model trains and interacting with guests, we'd love your help!
No experience necessary, just a willingness to learn.
