The much-anticipated train extension at the Scovill Zoo is complete.

Tuesday morning on the WHOW Morning Show, Director Ken Frye told Regional Radio News the extension opened last week and now takes its regular route around the zoo but now extends to Lake Decatur and up to the Children's Museum.

With a new extension, you can get on at the Museum or in the zoo. Frye says you can buy a train ride with your admission to the zoo. The extension almost doubled its length. 

Frye reminds those wanting to check out the zoo on the Fourth of July, it is free admission as part of their free admission Thursday promotion during the summer and they are offering free carousel rides.
