'''Music/Sounds''': We start with a mysterious wind tune that fades with a high-pitched descending shriek of some sort (long version only). Following is some ringing sounds of bells, another wind tune (long version only), the metallic sounds of the train gears along with a train whistle and the rails clattering. An eerie synth drone/hum is heard throughout starting with the bells.

'''Editor's Note''': An iconic debut. The CGI is a bit dated for today, but was pretty advanced for the early '90s; in all fairness, this logo's soundtrack is the real star of the show here, anyway. | '''Editor's Note''': An iconic debut.
