^ Which trains?

While at Six Flags St. Louis, I happened to oddly see a sandwich in a coaster net.... It was the strangest thing I've seen yet in one of those nets.

I could most commonly be found waiting in line for The Beast or on The Beast. When I'm not in Rivertown, I like to get A bunch of rides in on Flight Deck.

Yes, that can be assumed.

I think that the trains were just moved to KI for their parts, If I remember correctly......

Are there any other rides still left at GL?

Wow, Thats terrible news...... God bless her family and loved ones. I have known her for a few years, not on a very personal level but me and her have had our fair share of good conversations over the past few years. She was an incredible person and a great KI employee, She will definitly be missed.

Most of my KI and PKI visits have been in the past 10-11 years and I think my most memorable visit was in July of 2010, I went with my mom, and sister and we had one of the best trips I've ever had to Kings Island. We wanted to make an effort to ride every coaster in the park more than once that day. But I had told them that I wanted to get on The Beast at least 5 times, Little did we know, The lines were SO full on that day that I thought it would be hard to enjoy it. Overall we made the best of it and got to get our Beast night ride and rode Almost every coaster once. Very memorable trip indeed.

I meant, if they gave a few different name choices and let us vote on which one we like the best.

Thats a good idea, Steel Beast at Kings Island but what type of coaster should that be? Maybe an Intamin Or B&M? I think KI should take a poll to decide the name of the next coaster.

Did you happen to get any pictures?

Unlikely to happen but in my mind and the mind of many others, that would be a wonderful thing to do. However, that would burn a large whole in the money bags of Cedar Fair and doesn't seem like a very Ouimet type plan....... But who knows, sometimes FUN comes in un-expected and suprising ways.

Are the Son of Beast bolts still available?

You know, that's a very good question. I actually hadn't noticed what forum it was in. This probably belongs under Polls. I made a small mistake, I meant to put it under the Polls section. Mistakes happen.

You guys should watch this video just released by ThemeParkReview of Son of Beast off ride footage and a POV of it during the loop days..... In a way, It almost makes you wish something could have been done to fix it, But I am glad for the further park expansion space that its removal has given Kings Island.

In my opinion, I would just like to see a new woodie at Kings Island for 2014 or whatever year KI plans on installing a new roller coaster. As far as which manufacturer provides the coaster, I guess it should just be the one who can provide the most safe, we'll constructed, well designed, wooden roller coaster that fits the needs of Cedar Fair, KI officials, and park guests.

Merry Christmas to everyone here in the KIC Family, I wish you all the best christmas and I hope you all have a great day!

How many times have you ridden The Beast?

Gov. Bashear mentions the same things mentioned above ^ In an interview. http://www.wdrb.com/story/20396714/beshear-says-the-jury-is-out-on-possible-kentucky-kingdom-deal Both of those links are the exact same article; the only difference is that one is the mobile version and the other is the full-site version. One has a video, One doesn't. There was a reason why I posted it.

Don, Whats your favorite memory of Son of Beast?

Don, how many times have you ridden The Beast? Or have you even kept track of the number?

It seems to be very rare that Michigan's Adventure gets very much attention so its great to hear that they get a new attraction. Can't wait until Kings Island announces a new attraction in the coming years.....

Why soon?
