In October, 2002, the Tucson Botanical Gardens issued the following press release... "Two of our most popular hobbies - gardens and trains - come together for a special exhibit. "Garden Railways" will open at the Tucson Botanical Gardens on November 23nd and continue through the month of January. With the help and creativity of the Tucson Garden Railway Society, visitors will have the opportunity to see model trains as they meander through TBG's Shade Garden and tunnel under cactus and mesquite, which is sure to delight both young and old." We are proud and excited to be a part of this display. Our members spent many hours during the first 3 weeks of November building this layout. At least 1 member of TGRS is on-hand all day during the scheduled running dates. The reaction from everyone who has seen it has been extremely favorable. Please see the other links provided for more information about this innovative exhibit at the Tucson Botanical Gardens. News update - Exhibit display has been extended thru the first week of March! |
