The 600' long Arrow River Train Ride is part of the Railroad Garden. The Train holds up to 38 children or 22 adults. Interwoven with the Train Ride is the expanded "G" scale display of model trains running at different elevations throughout the Railroad Garden. Miniature landscapes compliment the Railroad Garden, which includes a 10-foot high waterfall and several buildings made from natural products. Visitors also ride near a village of custom houses and "Wally World", a collection of storefronts. The exhibit is filled with a miniature landscape including perennials, ornamentals and many trees.
The cornerstone of this exhibit is the full-sized, 25-ton "Camden Caboose." Originally used in 1942 for the New Haven Rail Line, this caboose was donated by Conrail. Once the Caboose is fully restored, it will become a place for hosting birthday parties and educational classes.
The Railroad Garden is also a main feature of our Train Festival, held during the second weekend of November each year. So if you enjoy trains, please stop by and see us.
There is a modest fee to ride the train. Proceeds from the train help maintain the Garden and the Club’s Programs. The train is also available for an additional charge with an evening rental.
