all i know is that it has been down since early june cause i was there on the 8th and it was down...

Also, sry its off topic, but whats this new ride at Coney?

Here Coney's new ride

As of yesterday, that big crane was the only remaining "heavy machine" at Delirium - the cherry picker was gone, as was the other crane. They were still working on it though.

tks for the new info

Nice pics. Not nice for Delirium but nice pics.

It is cool how they did all the work up on top instead of bringing the whole arm off like other people 'thought' would happen.

If they would have taken the whole arm off it would have just made it harder.

Well, when they didnt take of the arm that confirms that the main gear is what failed. If the motor blew then they would take down the whole arm.

'Yes that sounds like it could be true, not a rumor but a guess'

You would be surprised how easy some people make these rides to work on.

Plus, have you ever seen the insides of one of these rides? I would tell ya, but you dont need to know what the problem is. Plus its more fun to see you guys guess.

actually i can pretend n' be smart and know whats wrong with the ride....well..the third axel by the fourth motor ceased to operate which caused havoc...following this..mechanical engineers were brought up to the seen to properly repair the device to its glory days

Drove by this morning and I saw the crane up and working on it. That was about 9 am.

I know whats wrong with it too...

Its broken. And Im not a mechanic. I just stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.

well actually a fat person went on the ride and when the ride was going full swing one direction the motors couldn't make it up all the way n' thats y one of the gears got screwed. didn't take a genius to know that

Well, when they didnt take of the arm that confirms that the main gear is what failed. If the motor blew then they would take down the whole arm.

Why do you think that, about "the motor"?

Who knows, well i guess they were still working on it today cuz noone said anything new about it.

Yeah, I'd tend to think the opposite. The drives sit off to the side and the gear is in the "guts" of the pivot at the top. But like Matt said earlier, the rides are designed to facilitate repairs and maintenance (for the most part anyways).

Ya i'm sure they made maintenance for the mechanical parts of it easy, hence the platform up there

I beleave it should be open in a couple weeks.

I know its still an educated guess 'n all..but cpl weeks?

I was there on Wendsday and the cranes are gone maybe it will be in a few days!

Magic 8 ball says.....

Don't worry, it will open the day after you go to the park.
