USA Cartoon Express


USA Cartoon Express was a classic line up of a lot of Hanna Barbara programming, Magilla Gorilla, Pac Man, Monchichi's , Smurfs, Snorks, Shirt Tails and many other great programs, it's signature bullet train was probably the most memorable part of the block. That train was the symbol of this block of nostalgia. On Cartoon Express you could see classic animation like Dyno Mutt and Wacky Races. It ran from 1982 to 1998 but died way before that. Once Cartoon Network was established it took much of the chunk of the animation with it. The line up was revamped but would never hold a candle to the original. I want people that aren't in the know to see what child programs were like in the before the 90s.
