The Chicago Botanic Garden. Glencoe Illinois USA. Wednsday, September 15th, 2010.





I took this photo during a recent September 2010 visit to The Chicago Botanic Garden in north suburban Glencoe Illinois.

The former Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, had a major prescence in Chicago many years ago. Their famous blue and gray passenger trains were a regular sight on the southside of Chicago during pre Amtrak times prior to 1971.

Seen here, is a miniature G Scale rendition of what could possibly be, the B & O Capitol Limited passenger train passing through one of the gardens. The outdoor G Scale model railroad exhibit, is a big hit with both Young and Old here at the Chicago Botanic Garden.
