Cool photos, I like the entry to the Pirates of The Carribean. The variations between other disney parks' attractions i salways interesting.

I was hoping I would see an update on SFNE sooner or later. So I assume SWAT is going where the queue house for Cyclone used to be? I'm really satisified to get a giant flat ride at the park for the 2006 season. Speaking of S&S flats... how is Compounce's Thunder & Lightning (Screamin' Swing) coming along? Thank you for the update and keep us posted!

Just spent the last half hour checking out the TR and photos thus far. It's great that despite running around asia you still have the time to post the photos for us back home. Hope I can make it in '07 with Ali. Thank you for the great photos!

Glad to see someone enjoys SheiKra as much as I.

Cool, good find Canobie.

Yeah, I'm a sucker for cars... Epcot's Test Track is themed wall to wall from queue to exit ramp.

I can't believe i tmade national news (we saw it here in RI) If it was a Howard Johnson in Arizona we would have never known of it. Glad to hear there wer eno injuries.

Outstanding videos, as a railfan, I especially appreciated your train segment.

Oh yeah, they still make 'em. http://www.chancemorgan.com/coasters3.html Although I think the Steel Dragon incident may have hurt sales. New in '04 was Superman, which opened at SF Mexico.

Ehh... the smaller top hats are just OK in my opinion, but Kingda Ka and TTD's are another story. Anyways, I'm sure the pretzel loop will make up for any loss in excitement. Why can't SFNE get one of these?

I know I saw a walk-through of the queue on one of the TV specials... not sure which it was though.

Looks like it COULD be a zoomed-in still from the official Disney xmas preview of everest, which was posted to these boards under the existing thread. The video shows a shadowy outline of the yeti, but not much detail, but you can pretty much imagine what it will look like... just REALLY big.

I know on Splash Mountain the ride barely makes a splash at all, but rather you get wet from water jets/misters activated by the car going down the drop.

I don't really care to ride the kiddy coasters... which after all ARE for kids, unless it's something unusual like a setpoint swing thing. I also won't suffer through a Vekoma boomerang JUST to say I rode 9 of them, but if someone in my party wants o ride it, I'm game. I really don't care how big my track record is, I'm just sure to hit all the good rides.

Nice.

I also think the Intamin red and blue has been played out. I do like the same scheme on B&M's tho... i.e. SheiKra and Patriot.

Yeah... what ever happened to the subway thing? Exactly what kind of theming does this ride have, any animatronics? Photos look great, BTW, many thanks to our Aussie friend for taking us from ground-breaking to air-timing.

Muchos gracias

The new in '06 coasters i will get to ride are as follows... Tatsu El Toro Goliath (LR) Goliath (SFOG) Expedition Everest I'm also really looking forward to Lake Compounce's giant Screamin' Swing "Thunder & Lightning"

TIVO! Best thing I ever did for this sort of thing.

Exactly what kind of park is this going to be? Rides... or more like interactive attractions. This is the first I've heard of it.

I've always liked CP's Disaster Transport's queue... for the effort.

I'm really curious as to what the trains will look like... What changes, exactly were made by S&S to X's trains to finally get it to run most of the time?

Wow, that theming is fantastic!
