Oh yes that is very true, Paramount doesn't exist, ha! Oh, really? http://www.paramount.com

But his brother is a park employee, who I'm sure would not want something like this posted if it was not true... remember, KI reads this site.

Yes, but if it was only going to have a few trains full of riders, I have a feeling they'd still do it without changing anything...

That's a good idea.

I am, well, shocked. Just shocked.

Eureka! Could they be considering a last rides auction?

That's more than one thing...

The thing is, I don't doubt that it's running circuits. I just doubt that that says anything about the future of the ride. I think they might be measuring stress on the structure or something, but if they were planning on reopening it, they would have done track maintenance since May.

Could the dark ride be a Vekoma Pandora's Box?

I wish they would just fix the thing or tear it down. If they could actually make it an enjoyable ride, then that would be great. But, they've tried, and it's beyond help. It's like the Britney Spears of the rollercoaster world- flashy, but it has a lot of incidents and needs some rehab.

I would bring a HUSS Enterprise back. I think they're really fun, and KI doesn't have one anymore...

Pics or it didn't happen. Or they're taking some POVs and footage of the ride for historical reasons before tearing it down...

I always heard that it was "Black Sunday".

If the wood were stained, it would look much better. It's an impressive structure, but I wouldn't say that beautiful is the word that I would use. I just wish that PP wouldn't have tried to do so much with one ride. If it were a smaller woodie with a loop, it might still have a loop...

Personally, I would be happy with a tear down and a few flat rides in its place, rather than have a huge eyesore that isn't operating.

Yes, but techincally, SDatHC is not part of NU. Therefore, even if it were leaving, you could still say that no NU rides were leaving. Which is why I asked.

I'm betting on a quick'n'cheap Snoopy conversion or a simple GhostBlasters conversion.

I know. I was wondering because of the whole "SDatHC is on International Street" thing, and CF's tendency to heartlessly tear the soul out of dark rides in parks they purchase.

Most likely, Diamondback.

Including SDatHC?

I'm saying that they should have had more than a helix. Hey, it's better than just saying AE...

The Backyard BBQ really is a good deal (I was floored by the quality of the food, especially the chicken!). Other than that, well...

There may be a red and blue Gerstlauer train that are going to be freed up soon... Just saying. (and yes, this was a joke)

There's two corkscrews?
