Casey Jr. Splash ‘N’ Soak Station

Posted on by Jack Spence

According to blogger Jack Spence, it looks fantastic, and he has photos and videos to prove it. The premise is that Casey Jr. has arrived from out of town and is getting ready for a big show. Casey and some of his circus cars are parked on the turntable, while a few of his friends have already been positioned nearby. All of the animals are excited about the show and exhibit their enthusiasm with sprays of cooling water on the crowds below.
