The 2012 Gardenland Express Holiday Flower and Train Show at the Missouri Botanical Garden featured G gauge trains and a streetcar traveling through miniature holiday landscapes from redwood forests to mushroom fantasies, all surrounded with Christmas decorations, wrapped present tunnels, thousands of fresh plants, and beautiful poinsettias. The display was open from Thanksgiving through New Years.
