Thomas is chugging out of Kennywood
Orion-XL200 replied to disco2000's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
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. -
Kings Island Hanna Barbera Parking Lot Signs
Orion-XL200 replied to Dreymeister's topic in Kings Island History
I shared these from the booth with some friends: This was like $68 They had a couple of these and they were $38. -

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."

HWN is superior imo. I wonder how well it'll go without the leadership of the past.

Won't be attending for the first time since Coasterstock has been offered. Will be at HWN.

Kings Island Hanna Barbera Parking Lot Signs
Orion-XL200 replied to Dreymeister's topic in Kings Island History
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. -
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.

The amount of tweets from a single user claiming it's a record breaking water coaster? -
Coney Island Display at EnterTRAINment Junction

It looks like Shooting Start was SBNO...when I last visited, it was having technical difficulties. -
Kings Island General Discussion 2025
Orion-XL200 replied to Klabergian Empire's topic in Kings Island
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?). -

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? -
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.

Completed in time for winterizing!

OFFICIAL: Carowinds to retire three rides
Orion-XL200 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Bye Nighthawk!! Sorry to hear about Scream Weaver/Drop Tower. -
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.

Looks like Tony C. continues with Six Flags as well!
