KSAT reports that the new trains will replace those which were built in the 1980s and 2000s, according to a spokesperson for the San Antonio Zoo.

The new San Antonio Zoo train debuted Monday.

According to KSAT, the zoo plans to order two additional new trains but the nonprofit is still in the donation phase for the two subsequent trains.
