I spent the afternoon at the New York Botanical Garden to check out its holiday train show. While the trains get top billing, the real stars of the attraction are the miniature versions of famous New York City landmarks handcrafted from natural materials like bark, twigs, stems, fruits, seeds, and pine cones.

Here are a few shots of the Yankee Stadium model:

I posted some other (non-baseball) photos from the holiday train show to my Flickr account.

The display will remain open at the New York Botanical Garden until January 13th, 2013. If you’re in the area and have the opportunity to go, check it out.

  1. Wow, That’s very impressive, even to a non-Yankee fan.

      I agree – I would have preferred the Polo Grounds or Ebbetts Field, but I understand why they’d pick the Bronx landmark instead.
