The Great Pine Railway Comes To Old Westbury Garden

OLD WESTBURY, NY — Starting this weekend, Old Westbury Gardens will be transformed into the Old Westbury Railway, as it hosts a large, outdoor model railroad exhibit for the first time.

The exhibit, the Great Pine Railway, opens this weekend and runs through Sept. 6. The large, G gauge model railroad is specially designed for Old Westbury Gardens, and features Long Island landmarks to make it unique.

Trains will run along hundreds of feet of brass rail. There are three track loops: the upper track has two bridges that guests can walk under, and two lower tracks. In total, there is more than 220 feet of track.

Viewing of the Great Pine Railway is included with admission to Old Westbury Gardens. There will be a special opening preview for Old Westbury Garden Members on June 17. Tickets are $14 for adults and $8 for children. Kids under 8 are free. For more information, visit the Old Westbury Gardens website.
