  1. I feel the exact same way, both that the Aeroplane looks like a great coaster and also that it would be heinous to close this park. When I worked for Paramount Parks the guys at Kings Island were always talking about rebuilding the Aeorplane. I believe they even had plans drawn up to do so. I doubt that will ever happen now since all those guys from Kings Island have been replaced by Cedar Fair guys.
  2. RYE PLAYLAND HISTORY 101 Shane's Amusement Attic is not all about pretty postcards, brochures and press kits, I also try to bring some educational value about parks that are significant to the industry. Now it is time for a little history lesson on one such park. Rye Playland. With it's future uncertain, I just hope that this great old park will survive future redevelopment. As can read about in the posts below it has a very rich history. It's a shame to bulldoze all those memories and future memories for another strip mall.
  3. This is very interesting, thanks for posting. Of course my vote goes to TURBINE also! I am looking forward to more updates as things progress.
  4. Thanks Redmenace8! I am glad you are enjoying the posts. Remind me where we met and who you are, I don't really know people by their TPR screen names.
  5. Thanks for posting those pictures of Golden Loop. I really like its new color scheme. If you have more pictures of the ride (i.e. station, launch area, back spike) I would love to see them. This coaster seems to have very few pictures available on the internet.
  6. Here are a few random postcards leftover from the Random Lightning Round going on over in Shane's Amusement Attic.
  7. Here is an interesting article now featured in high res. on Anton Schwarzkopf. You can even see a very rare photo of the famous Revolution Loop without Valencia Falls in the background.
  8. Sorry Larry, it is almost over. But in the meantime, here is another one from Japan... SPACE WORLD
  9. I don't get your reasoning here...you say Dorney has possessed, but Valleyfair has Steel Venom...same thing
  10. Here is a 1996 map of Worlds of Fun...can you find a place for Invertigo on this map?
  11. KORAKUEN Park before it became La Qua. Notice the Ultra Twister where the Linear Gale is...or was. Hooray for a park that still has an Intamin Parachute Tower! (although the colors leave a bit to be desired)
  12. Photos of Golden Loop PLEASE!!!!!
  13. Someone stick a fork in this park...IT IS DONE!
  14. Here are some postcards from the Amazing Oktoberfest in Munich
  15. Here is a look at one of the stars of the motion picture, "Roller Coaster". The Rocket was featured in the opening sequence of the movie and later starred in a made for TV movie called, "The Death of Oceanview Park". The quality of this post is lacking, but the information on this ride is exceptional. It sure looked like a terrific ride, unfortunately I never had the chance to ride it. The Rocket
  16. Here is a poster from the Arrow Shuttle Loop, "Screamin' Demon", coaster that used to flip riders upside down forwards and backwards at Kings Island.
  17. I think I will continue the Random Lightning Round since I still have more Random stuff to post. Here's an old Brochure from ASTROLAND
  18. Here's a look at the Roger Rabbit dark ride in Disneyland's ToonTown!
  19. ^Agreed! Screamin' Eagle has always been a long time favorite of mine!
