  1. Honestly, while it was a good addition, seemed odd that it was only 5 rides and the rest of the kiddie rides weren't included. Here are some highlights from the Thomas addition: Thomas Town Ride Goes Off The Tracks At Kennywood Kennywood's Thomas train ride closed after 2nd derailment Exclusive: Get a first look at Kennywood’s Thomas Town I can't find it, but I vividly remember the Thomas Shell caused the engine to overheat and the train was down for a bit. Trying to find that article.
  2. I shared these from the booth with some friends: This was like $68 They had a couple of these and they were $38.
  3. True story lol. The locals that would, work at the park mostly lol. Most mountain coasters are open year-round just with adjusted hours during the off season.
  4. Current view:
  5. Didn't see this coming, but don't see it being worthwhile. From Jan-mid March every year, the area basically goes into hibernation. While some attractions are open year-round, I don't know that there are enough people that would make it worth the operational costs. I could be wrong....I'd love to see it, but it's not something that would have me driving 6.5 hrs to visit during the "off-season."
  6. HWN is superior imo. I wonder how well it'll go without the leadership of the past.
  7. Won't be attending for the first time since Coasterstock has been offered. Will be at HWN.
  8. That's correct...it is still there...still very much not for sale. Also has several KI items for sale...way too expensive for what they are.
  9. Out of the 3 camera views, this one is probably my favorite for now. I find this view interesting, like you @BoddaH1994. I partly wonder if they've removed the ice layer already and we're seeing the plywood? I wonder this, because of the palets to the bottom right of the frame and then the lift on the bottom left.
  10. The amount of tweets from a single user claiming it's a record breaking water coaster?
  11. It looks like Shooting Start was SBNO...when I last visited, it was having technical difficulties.
  12. But will those three actually do racing? Well SSBR (should be) both sides of Racer on any given day (maybe?) and both sides of River Racers (maybe?).
  13. Ah what the schell! Apparently Carolina Cyclone closes for good on Jan 4....per ride crew/maintenance per Mr. Schell.
  14. Looks like the Coney Island Display will also end up in Tennessee.
  15. You don't see the up and down shaking on the left side?
  16. Absolutely. Many better options for food than at KI.
  17. Maybe if this experience were open more than 6(ish) days to the public, they shied away from serving chicken tenders are almost every restaurant they would have had a better chance?
  18. This likely, I'm guessing, is due to the fact that the park will no longer be in existence in a few years. Time to start scaling down operations as they can.
  19. I will give Snow Works a few points, because we actually went further down the decline than on Black Friday when we only went a couple of inches.
  20. Completed in time for winterizing!
  21. Hey we got that new 2024 Coke Refresh Station! Things are looking up in Action Zone!
  22. Bye Nighthawk!! Sorry to hear about Scream Weaver/Drop Tower.
  23. Enjoyed my visit last night. I did not end up doing the buffet....but enjoyed my meal at Coney BBQ. Racer in December just hits different. So fun!!! Snoopy's Soap Box Racers was a nice addition. The lights around the train have been mostly fixed...there were still fixtures that left the people decapitated, missing an arm, or just not on at all. Music played which was a plus. Snow Works only allowed for 2-3 lanes to be used. I tried two of the cocktails, which ended up being good.
  24. Looks like Tony C. continues with Six Flags as well!
