90 Million Years in 9 Minutes

By Linda Tancs

90 million years: that’s how many years are represented in the latest animatronic dinosaur park, located in Secaucus, New Jersey.  Nine minutes: that’s how long it takes to get there from New York City. The dinosaur park recently unveiled 31 robotic dinosaurs for the exhibit, Field Station: Dinosaurs. Dinosaurs from the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous periods hover over (and under) the tree line, including New Jersey’s own Hadrosaurus foulkii. Sounds like dino might to me.

2016 update: Field Station has relocated to Overpeck Park in Leonia, New Jersey.
