Our neighbors used to have a garden train. I also saw one on a garden tour. This is just like John Patterson on For Better or For Worse comic.

Luved seeing this post. There's a special "garden walk" around here where all the gardens feature a train in the garden. I didn't go but now wish I had. Nice post.

That is so fun and unique! The pond and landscaping are beautiful as well.

How DELIGHTFUL ;--)
Methinks I'd enjoy my morning coffee and journaling in this unique setting.
Hugs and blessings,

These kind of big outdoor trains are so much fun to watch. I've seen several at a public garden (can't remember where though). Lost my "magic lilies" when we moved. Your post reminded me so I think I'll get some again. Thanks!

My grandson loves trains & I have thought how fun it would be to run one through our flowerbeds for him. Then I think of the rain, the weather, the bugs... the upkeep & I just think, Oh not me! Thanks for sharing.

My Grandad had a special train set that he worked on for months before Christmas when we all got to enjoy it.
