After October’s storm and the following clean-up period, we hopped right into November’s seasonal preparations with the Holiday Train Show<\/em><\/a>. Our kiku<\/em> bid a fond “adieu<\/em>” as they made room in the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory<\/a> for New York’s most cherished winter tradition. And did I mention the leaves on the trees? Fall had arrived–loud, clear, and bursting with the warmest hues.<\/p>\n

Paul Busse and his team at Applied Imagination are nothing if they’re not diligent (and brilliantly creative). Setting up the Holiday Train Show<\/em> takes no small amount of time or ingenuity, and for the last 20 years they have continued to produce one of New York’s most delightful holiday experiences. This year, we set up a time-lapse camera in the Conservatory so our readers could get a better idea of just how the whole process goes down.<\/p>\n
