February 4, 200620 yr Would that coaster really be worth rebuilding? IMO, it was not that great of a ride to begin with.

February 4, 200620 yr Author It is my understanding that it was removed in such a fashion that the only real purpose the track could now serve would be as scrap metal.... I was under that beleif too for the longest time, but after talking to some people I think they just cut the bolts to remove the track, which is a standard procedure. I think it COULD be rebuilt, but any park willing to buy it wouldn't be able to afford the necessary rehab. I think Ghoster Coaster could be rebuilt. In fact, I'd say it's a strong candidate for being rebuilt at a smaller park. I think it was all on pretty flat ground, so it's not like it's a terrain coaster or anything. Anyone got Ralf Stricker's number?
February 5, 200620 yr ^ I was just thinking that or maybe they could add it to Coney Island. I think that the King Cobra's track and what not are beyond repair. Do they still have the supports for it anywhere?
February 5, 200620 yr I don`t really see Coney Island adding Scooby`s Ghoster Coaster. Just doesn`t seem like it would fit in with the park. Now, if Conay could get a hold of some of PKI`s kiddie rides that they removed... Or a set of Flying Eagles... Anyway, from what I have heard, there will not be any new rides at Coney this year, just general park improvements.
