An old-fashioned steam engine and freight trains traverse through a floral displayarranged in artistic splashes of color. Visitors escaping the cold can enjoy a beautiful Poinsettia display, with some varieties that are named to highlight the season, such as ‘Eggnog’, ‘Sparkling Punch and ‘Ice Punch’, all blended together with a ‘Peppermint Twist’ and ‘Ruby Frost’ varieties. The village, comprised entirely of natural materials including willow, spruce and birch woods, features a variety of Chicago-style homes and famous buildings such as the neighborhood bungalow, Chicago Theatre and Chicago Water Tower Place.
