Friday, October 2, 2020 by Tai Moses
A brand-new train is coming to Zilker Park and it needs a brand-new name. Austin Parks Foundation, which has been conducting (no pun intended) a naming contest for the new train, has announced the seven finalists and now invites people to select their favorite from the list. The names are:
- The Armadillo Express
- The Bluebonnet Express
- The Zilker Eagle
- Edwina Justus
- The Lady Bird Flyer
- The Moontower Rambler
- The Zilker Zanate
