No amusement park train is a toy. No matter how big, or small, none of them are toys. They require a responsible and alert crew, a dedicated MOW crew to watch the track, and a good shop crew to keep everything in top shape.

If you don't treat it right, it will bite you in your rear.

On the topic of the Zoo, that little 0-6-2 is a neat looking locomotive. I'd love to spend some time behind that throttle.
