Raptor Rides The PATCO!

Jojo the Utahraptor and Dinosaur Trainer Safari Sarah surprise transit riders as they travel from Haddonfield, NJ to Jurassic Quest

It’s officially “Dinosaur Week” in Philadelphia, and some of the stars of Jurassic Quest arrived in grand style to the Pennsylvania Convention Center. A 14-foot “live” Utahraptor boarded a PATCO train in Haddonfield, NJ, and surprised passengers on a ride to Philadelphia before getting off at 8th and Market. As Safari Sarah and Jojo the Utahraptor discovered, PATCO is a great way to get the show from South Jersey.

Jurassic Quest, the largest and most realistic dinosaur event, opens at the convention center for a limited one-weekend run this Saturday, December 17 and Sunday, December 18. Through “PATCO Perks!”, PATCO’s rider perks program, customers can save 15% off show tickets by using promo code “PATCO” online.

Jurassic Quest’s stop through Haddonfield is notable because the Hadrosaurus was the most complete dinosaur skeleton unearthed anywhere in the world when it was discovered in the South Jersey town in 1858.
