TUCSON, AZ (KOLD) - You don't have to be a member of a train society to be fascinated by them.

That's why the Tucson Garden Railway Society puts on displays like the latest one downtown, to share their works of art with everyone.

The society features trains complete with intricate scenery layouts with buildings, roads, mountain ranges and effects. Trains dating back to the earliest models were on display as well as the latest models that are still running.

The Tucson Garden Railway Society sets up various train displays to educate the community about the history of trains. To find out more about the society and where you can see their trains in the future, here's a schedule:
