Indianan Beach To Add 2 Rides for 2021
Speculation on my behalf, but the front car has an extra set of wheel assemblies. Mindbender vs. Quimera. Both had issues with derailments caused by failed wheel assemblies.

HoliWood Nights 2022 will have limited capacity
They had the second round of invites go out in the 31st. They stated that the volume of responses was higher then expected and went with a randomly lottery. Sadly we weren’t selected on either round.

The Beast and Racer Pen Collectibles
With the major retracking Beast is undergoing, I really wish KI would sell pieces of the track. My Vortex and Son of Beast pieces are some of my favorite souvenirs. As much as I love the pens, I’m way to prone to losing them.

I forgot about that madness. It was sheer luck no one got hurt during that.

HoliWood Nights 2022 will have limited capacity
We went last year, I think we waited between 40 minutes to an hour during ERT for Voyage. The under the station queue house was full. During water park ERT, we only got through each water coaster once. Very glad they implemented a cap.

Additional Vortex Track Pieces Avaliable
Just ordered mine online, just want to say thanks to Don and team for putting some stock online. My son is considered high risk so I wasn't able to make it to the park to purchase this back in October, I'm glad I didn't miss out.

We are looking for a new moderator.
Don't forget, you're going to make Six Flags pay for it! In all seriousness, another +1 for malem. He does a good job at reading/covering all the threads, not necessarily the ones that are just interesting to him. As a moderator, you want somebody who views the whole site, not just a fraction of it.

The Beast Experience
I think music can greatly improve the experience of an attraction. I think it's a very underrated element of theming.Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk I love the Legend howl and Banshee scream.

Some of the rides ended up at Stricker's, such as the Pirat Ship and Electric Rainbow.

Whither Conneaut Lake Park Now?
We had a fun day. It rained the full hour that we drove the the park, but the rain slow down and stopped once we arrived. We got to ride the train, Devils Den, Music Express, and Tilt a Whirl, all of which were down 2 years ago when we last visited. Also took many laps on Blue Streak, Turtles, Paratrooper, Flying Scooters, and Tranbant. Crowd was difficult to judge. Today was $5 dollar wrist bands, but weather was rainy and cold. We were only at the park until 3, and it was noticeably busier as we left. It seemed all the rides were walk on, but the cycles were full. A lot busier then 2 years ago on a Saturday (but also a quarter of the price). Blue Streak seemed to be in a worst condition then 2 years ago. Entire front car was closed off, 90% of the tunnel roof was removed, one lap bars padding looked like a pink pool noodle, ect. With the exception of one or two employees, they were all very nice. Speaking to the Blue Streaks ride op, they've been having a bad time with cell phones out during a ride. He said that in the past 2 days he's personally caught 11 people trying to record the ride.

Cedar Point 2016 Talk
I had heard (but I don't remember where), that the trains with this new restraint are a bit wider, which was too much for the track layout.

Were the coupons for '15 or '16? Not that it really matters, just curious.

Whither Conneaut Lake Park Now?
The tentative plan is to go Sunday. We'll be about an hour outside of the park on Saturday, I figured we would visit the park one last time. My Mom loved to share stories of when she was a little girl and her family would make the trip to Conneaut Lake Park. That, and the times that her and her best friend would secretly ride their bikes to Idora. Youngstown sure was a different place back then.

Stolen Pass Replacement
My wife lost hers 4 or 5 years ago. When we called the park, they told us it would be $15 to replace, unless we had a police report in which case it would be free. But again, that was 4-5 years ago.

Cedar Fair pickers scour Europe for vintage amusement park rides
I would love this. I fear that when the park eventually goes, Kennywood will be the one to pick up the ride leaving only one remaining. I wish someone could pitch this idea to Cedar Fair.

is Dollywood building the worlds first launched woodie?
I'm not saying that Dollywood isn't getting a coaster in '16, I'm just saying that image was created by someone having too much fun with the developer tools, that's all. Lorem Ipsum is used on placeholder pages for a reason.
