Description

A dragon-shaped miniature train that has circled the park since its 1961 opening, one of the few originally-purchased attractions still running. Its engine was converted from diesel to electric during the 2008–2010 rebuild, and the ride received its first scenery refresh in 64 years when it reopened on July 15, 2025 with a new five-land "home is where the heart is" storyline.
