The Heritage of Green Hills is hosting two holiday-themed open houses of its spectacular train room.<\/p>\n
The public is invited to enjoy the intricate multi-train and multi-track layout created and curated by the senior living community\u2019s residents on Dec.13 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Dec. 20 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.<\/p>\n
The train room display is an ever-evolving labor of love featuring some of the area\u2019s favorite landmarks, including the Reading Fairgrounds Racetrack, the Reading Pagoda, the William Penn Memorial Fire Tower and Pomeroy\u2019s Department Store.<\/p>\n
Several different sizes of trains are featured, with G, O, S, N, and even teeny Z scale models incorporated in the large collection.<\/p>\n
In addition to the main display, there\u2019s a side room dedicated to an impressive HO scale setup, as well.<\/p>\n
Elves will serve cocoa and holiday treats at the family-friendly event on both dates. A special holiday market featuring local vendors will be held in conjunction with the Dec. 13 train room open house.<\/p>\n
\u201cVisiting the Heritage train room is a holiday tradition for many families, and this year, we\u2019re looking forward to seeing familiar faces and new ones, too!\u201d said Doug Walther, the community\u2019s executive director.<\/p>\n
