I had never heard of a garden railroad before seeing this episode of Visiting, but the Fairplex Garden Railroad in Pomona is such a wonderful place, I’m not too surprised to learn that creating these garden railways is a popular hobby worldwide.

Join Huell as he visits Fairplex Pomona to see their Garden Railroad. The Fairplex Garden Railroad is considered the oldest and the largest garden railroad of its kind in North America. The railroad depicts various eras in California history from the mid 1800’s to the present. “G” gauge passenger and freight trains tour the countryside in miniature scale on over 5,000 feet of track.
