Emerson Zooline Railroad Full Ride at The Saint Louis Zoo

ALL ABOARD! The Emerson Zooline Railroad offers a 20-minute narrated tour weaving through tunnels and past favorite animal exhibits on a 1½-mile round trip. One of the Zoo's most popular attractions, the Zooline Railroad has transported more than 39 million visitors since 1963. The railroad operates year-round, weather permitting. The Emerson Zooline Railroad's engines are a one-third size replica of the original C. P. Huntington, a famous steam locomotive first built in 1863, the zoo said. Known as the "Iron Horse," the C. P. Huntington helped build the first transcontinental railway. Though the Zooline is gasoline-powered, it still has the bells and whistles of a steam engine. Carrying passengers over 1.5 miles of track that includes 8,638 railroad ties, the railroad can reach a top speed of seven miles per hour. The 20-minute conductor-narrated tour takes riders through tunnels and past favorite animal exhibits.
