In the old days trolleys and interurbans often
ended by amusement parks some distance out from the center city. The Red
Line's last stop is more or less adjacent to Waterworld, and beyond
that, to Six Flags Astroworld. But a heavy duty fence marks
the boundary, and the actual entrance to the parks is not
particularly convenient. The inbound train in this view has just
passed a giant water slide, and will soon cross the I-610 access
roads. |
