Busch Gardens Tampa Serengeti Express 2019-2020

I hope No. 4 returns one day, although I think No. 601 is its de facto replacement.

[@TrainsWow]

I hope so as well

I wish there's a blue train no.50

I like how the trains quit stopping at Congo and go straight to Stanleyville. It makes the trip around the track about 7 min shorter. I wonder how that would look with a 3 train operation when the Green locomotive returns. They should demolish Congo and continue with the 2 stops per round trip.

[@Steamfan1]

TrainsWow™ That’s true. A 3 train operation with only 2 stations is possible. They just need a block system with 8 blocks around the track. Also if u notice the timing of the long run from Nairobi to Stanleyville it takes 16-20 minutes while the short run only takes 8-10 minutes. For a 3 train operation, they can have 2 trains in the plains side of the service road with one sitting at Nairobi, while the 3rd train sitting at Stanleyville. This timing would work, but it will take away the double trains passing each other.

@Sam the railfanner, there's a part where the yellow train is carrying red cars! I'm completely okay with that! It looks awesome.
