    Great American Lighthouses returns as the 2009 theme for Morris Arboretum’s Garden Railway display - featuring such favorites as Cape Hatteras, Sandy Hook and Boston Harbor Light. With a changing theme each year, the Garden Railway is a miniature world set in the splendor of a summer garden, featuring historic buildings created entirely of natural materials, each meticulously detailed with leaves, bark, vines and twigs. Logs and branches are also used to create unique tunnels and overhead trestles. Nestled among woody plants, colorful annuals and perennials, the finished product is an enchanting landscape that never ceases to delight visitors both young and old. Free with regular admission.
