Since 1956, the Brackenridge Eagle has chugged along the miniature tracks skirting the banks of the San Antonio River, as it makes its way through one of San Antonio¹s most popular parks. Generations of Brackenridge park visitors have ridden-the-rails past the San Antonio Zoo. It has braved several derailments, a couple of collisions, and even a modern-day train robbery during the summer of 1970.

On June 15, 2001, the San Antonio Zoo assumed the management and operation of the miniature train. There are three miniature trains that accommodate 363,000+ park and zoo visitors that ride the train annually. Adjacent to the train depot is a gift shop to purchase your train souvenirs and a café to ease your hunger after your train excursion.
