Extinct theme park ride types
Nrthwnd replied to Timh121's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ I agree. In fact I don't think a number of them, flipped at all. IMhO. Here's another one I found, which we rode in 2006, during the TPR UK Tour. Flamingoland ~ The Tidal Wave Nobody was impressed by it, I remember. And no flipping. But, Kumali in the background? MUCH more impressive to everyone. -

^^ I remember there one being in Kentucky Kingdom, back in the mid-90s. I was in Chicago for a 1995 convention, then headed down to stay with a friend near the park. And we made it a day there, way back then. EDIT: Found it! ..... Also back then... original T2 newly open. Took this photo of it back in 1995 visit. Found out it was The First One of these SLCs in the U.S.A. And we loved it!....back then. (o; -
^ I've never actually tried one, but I still can't get past the fact that it's two donuts with a meat burger between them. It just doesn't work for me. However - your creation does - look - a may - ZING!

Show us your collection!!!
Nrthwnd replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
...and to be continued.... I just discovered there was an additional "vehicle" in this Carnival Collection of Hot Wheels. And the set actually dates back to 2018! Interesting. Anyway, I decided to buy this whole set (on Amazon) that was being offered, instead of them separately. Finding the Steamer kind of clinched the deal, for me. (o; -
It's a sign! Of something good for your good deed, helping your co-worker. Something to do with the Number '5'. Just saying.

He heh, now this trackless vehicle attraction, is making me look more and more forward to TokyoDisney's Beauty & The Beast attraction, which is opening this April. (EDIT: Maybe a bit later, under current conditions/ circumstances.) And it would totally AWESOME if somehow, the DisneySea FROZEN attraction could be something like Resistance and Railway combined: trackless, at least two levels, and having spectacular projection mapping, throughout the ride.* Not just another "boat ride". *Just me wishin' and hopin'. Trackless 'R Us!
