Kinderbus (formerly Bertie's Bus Tour) is a Junior Flying Carpet built by Italian manufacturer Zamperla currently located at Edaville Family Theme Park in Carver, Massachusetts, USA.
It opened with the Thomas Land area on August 15, 2015.[1] The ride was sold alongside the rest of the attractions at Edaville in April 2025.[2]
Design
During the Thomas Land era, the ride was themed to the character Bertie the Bus from the Thomas & Friends cartoon series. The ride is a clone of Bertie Bus at Drayton Manor.
After Edaville's deal with Mattel ended, the ride was rethemed to match the Alpine Village theme. Bertie was recolored yellow to resemble a traditional North American school bus, and his face was removed.[3] The rest of the ride was left untouched.
