Move over Manhattan! New York’s other big seasonal event goes on parade with the popular Holiday Train Show at the New York Botanical Garden.

Wrapped in the glow of twinkling lights, model trains and trolleys zip along over winding tracks past scaled replicas of New York Landmarks. Orange slices, cinnamon sticks, poppy pods, pine cones and a host of plant materials are used to create the more than 140 architectural reproductions. The Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, The Brooklyn Bridge and Yankee Stadium are just a few examples. See the gingerbread houses and ongoing demonstrations. Stop at the café and gift shop.

Following our time at the Garden, we’ll enjoy lunch at Ann & Tony’s, a popular Italian restaurant on Arthur Avenue, the “Little Italy of the Bronx”.

Menu: Salad, Choice of Eggplant Parmesan, Veal Parmesan, or Chicken Marsala, Pasta & Vegetable, Coffee & Dessert. Entrée Choice in Advance Time to shop the Italian Market before departing for home.

Cost: $152.pp based on 40-50
