November 6 was my trip to the Downtown Aquarium in Houston. I'm in Douglas Smith Elementary School and it was a long trip. I was enjoying it, we saw the animals, and it was fun. I was in 3rd Grade.
I really like this song. It's so good
0:46 gates should have been down like 5 to 10 seconds prior
Thanks for the Upload Chance.

Great work as always! I wish I could make IAAPA this year.
I've been to St. Louis Zoo, I think they should buy some of these as their current fleet is diesel powered and their route has long enough tunnels to where the fumes make you feel lightheaded.
They could use the gas version for these cases.
@@qq84 no they can't? Gasoline still spits out those fumes, also they've already purchased their first electric anyway so it's a moot point.
@@JChristiansenLuckythebrony2222 1. No, neither causes problems with fumes in that case. 2. You can use natural gas. 3. Even if they already bought a Lithium battery it doesn't make the disadvantages go away.
@qq84 1. I experienced firsthand when I visited the St. Louis Zoo that the internal combustion engines they have very much _do give off fumes that made _*_me_*_ feel lightheaded_. 2. The disadvantages over fossil fuels battery electric aren't really as relevant as they would be on a full scale railroad when you're dealing with something as small as a _theme park_ train.
@@JChristiansenLuckythebrony2222 1. You're talking about the exhaust. That's why I said, they should use the natural gas instead of the diesel version. Diesel exhaust in a tunnel doesn't smell nice, that's well known.
That's really cool 😁
If only we got new trains at Kemah boardwalk old red and blue are getting kind of bumpy and uncomfortable
We were going to visit at the end of October, but it was down the week of our visit. 😢
Very nice
Wow & unbelievable
Also to add we sure need new Trains at Kemah. I am one of the operators at the Boardwalk. Would be nice to have Number 329 with a new engine inside that is just as powerful as it is now but the Blue one Number 324 needs to be change out for a new one. Keep in mind Chance i am just the Operator its all up to the company. But it is needed.
What is wrong with the old ones?
I wonder if the electric will eventually become the only thing available. Nevertheless we always appreciate ever step to making the CP Huntington the most enjoyable mini train ride!
Too many downsides that people don't talk about. Batteries are incredibly expensive and use limited resources.
@@ThePTBRULES exactly. They definitely won’t last as long as the gas powered units!
@@ThePTBRULES And, in contrast to Pb batteries, Lithium batteries use more valuable resources and can't even be recycled.
Actually the internal combustion version is much more environmentally friendly.
That is correct. Most electricity is produced by coal. There are more coal emissions produced to make the electricity to run the same distance than an internal combustion engine would produce!
@@user-rx6km2de4m In Pennsylvania most of it comes from Nuclear Energy. The rest comes from Wind.
No, it isn't -- moron. A train with zero emissions and completely recycle-able batteries is vastly superior. Texas has rapidly retired coal fired power plants because they aren't financial viable any more -- replaced it with wind generation.
@@user-rx6km2de4m No, it is not. Coal was 50% of electrical production in 2008. Now it is 28% and falling fast since it is no longer financially viable.
@@LakeHowellDigitalVideo Than you should inform yourself about the environmental footprint of electric cars, a similar technology.
There were even articles about that in the media, they are even worse than every diesel.
Virtually no fuel cost! LOL right
Electricity and short life lithium batteries are for free, don't you know?
@@qq84 Each passenger holds a small solar panel outside the car........lol
2:23-2:30btw I went there and there I got scared
Do they make these in bigger sizes?
No this is the only size. So not too much room is available.
Don’t go on the shark voyage trust me
Because of that jumpscare at the end?
:)
