Our downtown library, voted the best in the country, puts up a holiday train display. Kids just stand and stare, unable to move on from the display.
Here are some close-up details.
And from the top as we climbed the stairs, we saw a waterfall on display too.
Hope you all have a marvelous Christmas, if you celebrate, and a peaceful New Year.

Such a beautiful train display. You're lucky to have it. We saw a display at Christkindl at the City Hall one year. Lovely, just not as elaborate as the one you show.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Oh my gracious!!! I'm afraid if I ever entered this library, I might never leave! Incredible!!
That is a wonderful display! Merry Christmas.
That's awesome! I'm sure I would be standing and staring too. :)
Wow! That is amazing. I am sure that even adults stand and stare at the train display as well :)
Oh, my goodness, that is incredible! I can see why it's voted the best! Happy Holidays!
WOW, this is truly amazing! Happy Holidays to you and Yours.
I would just stop and stare too! I love trains. Thanks for sharing.

Where do you live? I want to go and see this display. Do they do it every year? Thanks for sharing the photos of it.
What a nice display! And a great way to get kids into the library.
Thuis is all I would have dreamed of, as a child, and it is mesmerising, too, as an adult. A winter wonderland!
Thank you for posting this magical display.
