I heard somewhere that Kings Island is working on building a 3d coaster.How would this work?Wont you lose the glasses?

It already opened, Haven't you ridden Diamondback yet? You put on special hats that feature 3D Glasses and it shows an animation as if you were on a Roller Coaster! It's really awesome!

What?

^ I think he was just messing around with him.

On ridewarriornation.com, Disaster Transport's card shows people wearing 3D glasses.

But I doubt KI's making a 3D coaster.

I've never been to Cedar Point so what is Disaster Transport? I know it's a ride and it's in the dark but what does it do?

It's a poorly themed indoor bobsled coaster.

nuff' said.

To be clear, all roller coasters at Kings Island (and everywhere else that I can think of) are already in three dimensions. A two dimensional coaster would either be very straight or very flat.

^and some are even 4-d

That ride must get a very very low ride capacity probably around 500 pph but it does look like a fun ride even though It's kinda slow and a short ride.

One of the first guy who rode Disaster Transport said to Dick Kinzel said, "It was a disaster." It was not a favorable statement.

I bet that didn't transport Mr. Kinzel to the land of happiness!

Not quite. He admits DT was the biggest mistake ..... until TTD.

And then he spent shiploads of nickels buying something or other from CBS. A wise purchase, yes, but at that price? Remains to be seen...

I'd much rather ride Eejanaika at Fuji-Q Highland in Japan - 2:10 ride time. http://rcdb.com/ig3676.htm

Its an indoor ride at Cedar Point. Very small cars, low capacity, and is barely themed with some wierd rocks. it is also a bobsled coater.

ITs not a bob sled coaster as it only has one car per train. Its called something else can't remember what though.

No it is classified as an Intamin Bobsled Coaster

For anyone who is curious about what it looked like before it was closed and put indoors.

And I have never seen anyone wearing the 3D glasses, there wasn't even someone selling them last time I was there. But also last time I was there, there was no lighting or effects or anything on the ride, it was just a pitch black bobsled ride.

And at least some of us loved that ride when it was "out-of-doors" as some used to say...
