  1. Nope, only the big blue one .
  2. http://www.rcdb.com/227.htm?p=3539 Are these the Morgan trains you are referring to? Those things are horrendous, I'd rather have the modified PTCs. Of course, my dream would be the original Trains back on the Blue Streak and The Racer.
  3. The one who cant look up from the ground? Once I went to CP rode Midway Carousel, walked around and left.
  4. http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/fun/blog/2010/5/21/Shoot_the_Rapids_Update.cfm STR will have a 42" height requirement.
  5. Do you have an backing to this Chaos theory (go for it terpy)or just a comment on how the cars were not on in time for opening day.
  6. Camp Snoopy opened in 1999, which may or may not have been Tilt a Whirl's first season.
  7. ^My bad, I confused it with the Space Spiral's decks of 280 and the extremely rare 290.
  8. Eiffel Tower's height was originally 331ft before 1999, at which time the antenna was replaced to make Drop Tower the tallest ride in the park. The observation decks are at 295ft (main deck) and 285ft (inclement weather deck).
  9. Cyclone was "Scientifically built for speed", at least CP claimed.
  10. For an example of the old way of line separation, follow the arrow to Kennywood. There, Racer and Jack Rabbit load the exact number of riders needed, there are no request for the front or the back. Be happy you can do that on Diamondback.
  11. While technicaly new, those god awful things are replicas of the ones used in the 70' and 80's I belive. They should have been locked in a vault below lake erie, not to see the light of day again. Numerous ride ops were grumbling about it on saturday. Also new this year, is cooler inspection at the main pavilion.
  12. RCDB begs to differ http://www.rcdb.com/635.htm http://www.rcdb.com/324.htm Memphis Kiddie Park's Little Dipper is the oldest operating coaster in Ohio.
  13. I probaly chatted with you, I arrived at marina gate at 7:45. I was wearing a dark blue Six Flags Ohio jacket, a PCWo hat and as usual shorts. Am I the only one whose pass scanned properly at CP on Saturday?
  14. The shot of Dragster is from 2003, the wheels are still on the train.
  15. ^It's generally the employ lot, but anyone can park there. Except on July 4th when no one can park there, as it's the fireworks safety area.
  16. Coney Island Rocks, the third flag is the park flag, in this case the KI flag.
  17. RWCW Sunday morning, being able to sit on Racer Red 1-3 for an hour and a half straight with out having to get off.
  18. In the second video, fast forward to the 1:03 mark.
  19. If that were a CF ride, it would be a 5.
  20. I was shocked, and then ecstatic when I heard her mention KI. As soon as she said Kings Island, I knew a topic had already been started on KIC. Now how many General Public members will be searching for the nonexistent save the rain forest day at KI. I think we have a KIC meet up theme .
  21. Kennywood's Racer is quite the conundrum, it races on a singular track.
  22. ^Something like this
  23. http://toledoblade.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20100430/BUSINESS03/4300358 Q targets which two members it wants replaced.
  24. http://www.morningjournal.com/articles/2010/04/29/news/doc4bd9a0247ce60582259502.txt Working link
  25. ^Aurora was asked, repeatedly and they refused to budge to either SW or SF. Bainbridge had a strict height limit of 180 ft (SV and Skyscraper). Solon was no help either, SF asked all three communities if the park could fund the widening of Oh 43 and all denied the request. Even now, neither have interest in trying to save the Dipper, all they are concerned about are the residents who disliked the park. The combined brilliance of Aurora and Bainbridge has them left looking at a decaying park. A sad sight for all who drive down Aurora Rd.
