Photo TR: KD opening Day/Dominator Construction
pkd freak replied to pkdcoaster's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Great photos! -
Well, I only really can speak off of KD/Cedar Fair. The rules should stand for all Cedar fair parks, but your never sure. From my experience with KD rain sitiuations. I know KD would run their coasters weither if its drizzling or pouring, unless it's thundering and lighting... Even when it pours, they still running. So, good luck and fun at Carowinds.

pkd freak posted a topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
We have been working REALLY hard on KD's newest fan site. We will have more to offer than ever. So to all of our Kings Dominion fans, we now have a new home for you. In the past, for some reason, it was really hard to keep up with any of KD's fan sites, your guess is as good as mines. But this time "KDLive!" will be here to stay... Ride On... Ride Warriors... Ride On." OPENING APRIL 1st!... the link will be up Tues. morning, so stay tuned. Kdlive! -

Memories from Kings Dominion
pkd freak replied to pkd freak's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Thanks for the great comments everyone. I wish I would had keep my book and info going, but I got older and I grew out of it, but I know this park from front back, back to front. The lake isn't that deep, about 4-6 feet deep, probably not even that. I went to KD one winter off season doing a project and learned a lot from the park behind the scenes, it was very interesting. -

*****PARAMOUNT'S FANTASY WORLD CLOSED FOR NOW***** I have some bad news guys, for some strange reason, PFW will not load on my PC anymore. I am really PISSED. I'm not sure what happened, I played it last night, and saved like all the others times when I play. So I tried to load it this evening, and it went to loading active objects to about 4%, then it just stops. The box pop up that says... not exactly the same wording, but it was something like... RCT3 has stopped. microsoft will notify you if there is any fix to the problem. And I didn't download anything from last night till now, and don't know what happened. You know if you ever down loaded someone elses park, and you don't have all their CS, then it would shut down, and the box will pop up, its that same message. So I don't know what to do.... I am highly upset... I put so much into this park, and I'm not starting over again. I really wanted to cry... if anyone know any solutions on trying to help me out, please do, and I want to thank EVERYONE that supported me and my park, sorry espcially to DBRU, I know you really luved this park. -
