DEFUNCT!

Featured Replies

I was just wondering... I didn't make this a poll because I don't know all the defunct rides... What defunct ride would you like to see back at pki? I want all of them, but What do you want?

Not to be rude but there is a topic just like this somewhere on the board.

Smurf's Enchanted Voyage, Flight Commander, Bat (with modifications so that it works right), and the name Outer Limits back on top of Flight of Fear.

Defunct rides I can think of:

1) Bavarian Beetle

2) Rotor

3) Bayern Curve

4) Zodiac

5) The Bat

6) The Screamin' Demon

7) Flight Commander

8) Der Spinnin' Keggers

9) Tumblebug

10) Winnie Witches Wheel

11) Phantom Theatre

12) King Kobra

13) Enchanted Voyage (Smurfs or Otherwise)

14) Kenton Cove Keelboat Canal

15) Flying Eagles

I can't think of any more, so someone else take over.

The one I would really like to see return is The Bat - with banked curves of course. Or, I wouldn't mind seeing The Bat trains on Top Gun even though it won't happen.

Edit*** I forgot 16)Sklyline Ride

Scrappy's slide, or whatever it was called, you went down in potato sacks!

Oh, and skylab.

- Phantom Theater

- King Kobra

- Scrappy's Slide

- The Bat

- James Bond back in Action Theater

Man these used to be my favorites... :censored:

Phantom Theater, Flying Eagles, Kenton Cove’s Keelboat Canal, King Cobra, and Antique Cars.

Don`t forget about the Sunshine Turnpike, which was removed after the 1993 season I believe. The same season that McScrappy`s slide left if I remember correctly.

I Have a couple of ride I would love to see at the park again.

1.Smurfs Enchanted Voyage

2.Flying Eagles

3.Antique cars

4.The Sky ride

5.Winne Witch's caldrones

6.The Bat

7.Screamin Demon

8.Scrappys Slide

9.Jabber Jaws Tubs

10.SunShine Turnpike.

Alot of those rides arent defunct they are sbno somewhere or they are in the process of being moved to another park or are running at another park :-p

Of the rides that have been removed from PKI, very few are operating at other parks. Screamin Deamon had been operating at Camden Park until around 1999 then it was SBNO, until it was dismanteled a couple of weeks ago. The Flying Dutchman which was removed in 1990 was sent down to Kentucky Kingdom where it still operates. Obviously the Flying Eagles will operate at Carowinds. I believe that the Zodiac was operating somewhere in Australia (Dreamworld maybe). King Cobra would be at another park, if any other park wanted to buy it from the park, if it hasn`t degraded to the point where it isn`t structurally feasible. I can`t think of any other PKI rides that are operating at other locations.

I honestly didnt like Phantom Theater it wasnt that great PKI needs a good Dark ride like the Addams Family Mansion.

Speaking of King Cobra, where exactly are the parts being stored. I head "in the trees" in another thread, but where "in the trees" are they?

When you are riding SOB, and you do the mid course break run, look to your right and down. Thats where they are. Everybody told me to look to the right just before the loop, but its really during the break run.

Bayern Curve and Zodiac were at Wonderland Sydney, but that park has closed. Wheel of Fortune is at DelGrossos.

The Jaber Jaw's Tubs are not defunct, they have just been re-themed to Boo-Boo's Baggage Claim.

As far as the rides I would want back:

Smurf's Enchanted Voyage and KCKC
