Busch Gardens Alpen Express

From the other side of the crossing we get another shot. Those crossing signals are flashing really weird...lol

I like that sound

[@NSCSXRailfan]

Great shot! That's the kind of ride I wanna ride! lol

[@VArailfan89]

Thanks and yep it's a good ride!

[@elliotloucks5249]

Fun fact: this is the only train that has a caboose in the park

[@davidng2336]

It’s also one of two known cabooses ever built by Crown; the other is at Six Flags St. Louis.

Epic!

Thanks!

NEG LED gate lights there, it appears.

[@blossomutonium8985]

1:29 Those lights were not supposed to go off until the gates are all the way up silly

[@radforddivisionrailfan]

Those two crossings there are the most bizarre of the crossings throughout the park. They never seem to be in sync on this one and the bell at the one closer to the sky car sometimes sounds weird.

[@VArailfan89]

They are weird. One light flashes slowly and the other is really fast...it's like it's having a seizure or something. LOL. I noticed the one near the chairlift sometimes goes in and out and doesn't sound.

[@radforddivisionrailfan]

Yeah. I've seen it happen. There have also been times that the two modern style crossings on the employee service road between Festa and Caribou have not been ringing.

[@VArailfan89]

I saw the new crossing on the service road, it looks like a "real" crossing!

[@radforddivisionrailfan]

They sure do. Even though they were placed to where they wouldn't clash with the theme of the park, for someone who goes almost yearly, seeing the changes in the park are strange. Also, has the red engine gotten its name put back on the front? It didn't have the name during the summer.

[@VArailfan89]

I didn't notice the engine. I noticed the other Busch Gardens down in Florida has gotten "real" crossing signals too but with electronic bells. Haven't been there but have seen videos

[@piktureit]

What the hell’s with the light XD

[@VArailfan89]

IDK, it's weird lol

[@Ih8kone]
