More About The Golden Hour Railway Garden at Gabis Arboretum ๐
As the Golden Hour hits, the shadows of our dwarf conifers stretch across the tracks, and the sunlight glints off the brass railings of the G-gauge locomotives. Itโs the perfect time to slow down, breathe in the fresh air, and lose yourself in the tiny details of American history. Avoid the mid-day sun and come on out to the see the trains running in the golden hours of day. Trains will be running from 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm on the first Wednesdays from June to September. Entrance fee and railway garden fee applies.
