The Brochure/Map Trade Topic
pkd freak replied to Reality15's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
I wish I would had kept all my old maps and brochures from back in the day. I had so many from back in the 90's from all the Six Flag Parks, "Paramount" parks and Cedar Point. I think I threw all of them away as I got older. -

GREAT PICS!!!! Still have not been this season yet. I'll make it next month. -
John, a biker, walked into a sports bar around 10: PM. He sat down next to this blonde at the bar and stared up at the TV. The news was just coming on.. The crew was covering a story of a man on a ledge of a large building preparing to jump. The blonde looked at John and said, "Do you think he'll jump?" John says, "You know, I bet he'll jump." The blonde replied, "Well, I bet he won't." John placed a $20 bill on the bar and said, "You're on!" Just as the blonde placed her money on the bar, the guy on the ledge did a swan dive off the building, falling to his death. The blonde was very upset and handed her $20 to John, saying, "Fair's fair. Here's your money." John laughed, "I can't take your money, I saw this earlier on the 5 o'clock news and so I knew he would jump." The blonde replies, "I did too; but I didn't think he'd do it again"....... John took the money....

Pix has been resized. Hope they came out better than before. -
Even though there was an overcast all day, the rain did hold up. I think the weather kept down the crowds. Today was a good day to start off my '09 season. Ride list from beginning to end. -Lockness Monster -Alpengiest -Griffon -DarkKastle -Big Bad Wolf -Battering Ram WOW, that does not seem like much at all... but trust me, I had a day full. ...Too bad I wasn't able to get any shots of Sesame St. Hope this was legal, lol. There she goes, im getting chills already. Waiting in line for my Fun Pass. I can only imagine how this is going to look come late spring and summer. Crowds were very low today. WHAT IS THIS I SEE! I thought that was GRIFFON! She stands Tall and Proud. First ride/coaster for the '09 season. Awwww, train 3 all quite and lonely. I just love Nessie. Hey! Where is she going, COME BACK! Only if I can ever catch the 2 train moment. 3 MONSTERS! I just had to see how good my optics were in my new camera. Flying like a bird. So upset, I pushed the buton too soon on this pic. Everyone's favorite spot in the park, lol. THE SMOKEHOUSE! Is this "tape" I see on the net? Lonely. But, Aplie wasne't. Random. I wonder what's in those Griffon "buckets". This was the shortest time I ever stood in line for DarkKastle. The beauty. I told ya it was short. Now, has this always had double seating? Very interesting. She turns 25 this year. Rode in the first seat, far most my best ride of the day. Classic shot. "Raises to the sun on Apollo's Chariot" Nice & Lonely.

THX, Its not really a MAJOR attraction... but for that area and time(70's) it will be a nice addtion to the park. Oow let me geuss: Enterprise?? Good guess, but no. An Enterprise will be added to another section in the park. -

UPDATE 3 Our design team has decided to rename the section Lakeside Central to Central Palms. Central Palm will be one of our most extravagant areas when the park opens. Filled with restaurants, Shops, our most beautiful Central Fountain, and three attractions. As one will get introduced in this update. We still have a lot of planning and construction on the way... So, here we go. LOGO Front Gate entering Central Palm, it's almost complete. Alpine Deli serving delicious Cheeseburgers, Steaks, Sub sandwiches, Drinks, and more. The General Store, Restrooms, and Alpine Deli. Scrambler, a family attraction. Central Fountain drained... *NOTE* As I'm one of the suckers out in RCT3 world that still cannot get is billboards to work! So just bare with me as I have signs with no logos/pics in em. THX! How "beautiful" my park will be if I could get em to work!! -

^^^^, LOL... yea we did have to tare down a lot of those to put the park up. A lot of extra funds to clear land, lol. Yes the parking lot was a very big project, BelgianGuy UPDATE #2.1 Due to positive feedback, we have replaced the stadium lights. I actually found some smaller lights to light up the whole parking lots. Also, we took out some of the handicapped spaces. I know we're all tired of seeing the parking lot(its just a huge project). Our next update will include Lakside's storyline and photos of the park getting started. See ya then!! -

Thanks everyone for the feedback and compliments... Well, actually is not set in the dead center of Miami, but some miles away. Details will come soon. UPDATE #2 The parking lot is underway, as we still have a lot ahead of us... Paving is almost complete in our next section. Pavement has been completed with the rail work. Street markings are being painted in, including handicap parking spaces. Almost complete, as this is going to be a huge parking area. -

Thanks for the side notes. I didn't even think about all of that when I was planning... I will keep em in mind. But, this will be a big park... very realistic, but I guess not realistic in that area...lol. -
