We are so excited to unveil the latest upgrade to our Z.O.&O. train ride: a wheelchair accessible train car! Today, Layla Blanton was able to ride the train in her wheelchair for the very first time. We are so grateful to the M E Raker Foundation and the AWS Foundation who helped make this possible, and to the Blanton family for cutting the ribbon on the brand-new accessible car. We hope more families will enjoy riding the train together and making memories just like the Blantons!
