Update Ok, now time for River Runner, Streamwood's premier family coaster and water ride, hidden deep in the woods. River Runner's big drop as seen from the queue. Of course, any great journey begins in the station And then said journey travels through the forest and beside the river. Over the river and through the woods, to grandmother's house we go! A small stream in the mountains powers the mill. Just prior to the wetness. Wetness. And a random shot of Blizzard and Rebel. Comment and enjoy!

Not much new in this update, but still some pretty pictures. An early Swiss morning. Barnstormer I gave Rebel's track a darker blue. Does it look better than before? A playground on the river. The coaster in the background is River Runner, which will receive an update soon. Night shot. Enjoy! Thanks, like Phantasialand, I have Streamwood opening in 1994 and going until 2009, so it's had plenty of time to fill up.

I kinda thought of the name just because there's a river and trees, and it the name of a town somewhat close to me. I'm reluctant to change it, however, because I started this park back in October, and it's grown on me. The good... -Thanks! Using the terrain better was one of my goals with this park so I'm glad it's working The bad... -Frankly, it's too late to really spread things out; it would just be too much work. I agree with you, but I'm just too lazy to fix it. -Just about everything you see in the overview that aren't in the crowded areas were unfinished when I took the picture, but a lot of it has been filled up by now. And I have been neglecting flowers, so I will be adding more. -If you're referring to the really empty ones in the overview, those are still unfinished. But for the others, it's because they're built on those rocky hills, where I think it would be unrealistic to have many trees there. Thanks for the comments, I'll have a little update tomorrow.

This park has been going on at other forums for a long time, but it hasn't gotten much attention, so I figured I'd give it a shot here. I'm only posting the most recent update here, to see the others go http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/showthread.php?t=666571. This update is dominated by Blizzard, a massive invert that is the centerpiece of Zurich. Welcome to Zurich, home of fine cheeses, chocolates, and one amazing invert. Blizzard's queue has plenty of things to look at. No matter where you are, Blizzard is always there, looking down on you. See, it's true! Ok, so it's kind of below you up on the peak... Not so dominating here, either... But if the coaster doesn't make you tremble in fear, they're always the big airy station. The park's skyline is growing... From all angles... Barnstormer Rebel Enjoy!

1. Male 2. I'm 15 years old 3. In general, I prefer steel. 4. I really like inverted trains. They make a ride very fun. 5. My favorite would have to be Millennium Force at Cedar Point. 6. When they're loading everyone into the train. So much tension, excitement, and fear is in the air. 7. Usually the first drop freaks me out the most. 8. Yes, but only a very tiny bit. 9. I like variety in my coasters, so yes I think it would be very fun. 10. Theming matters more in the queue, station, etc. to build up excitement and fear. Theming during the ride doesn't matter quite as much, but if you're going slow, then it's essential. 11. I'd like to see some of the coaster but not all of it, so there are some surprises. 12. Depends on how well done it is, but I would generally prefer a short, high capacity ride. 13. I would just like to see more innovation in the industry. More new ideas and inversions.

It's nice to see a proportional record breaker, but oh my god that thing is bumpy. That would hurt more than Villain, Mean Streak, Cyclone, Boss, SLCs, Arrows, Boomerangs, and go-karting thru a pothole. -
Hades Tunnel - Cell Phone Graveyard
dockers replied to verticalzero's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
When I read the title, I thought that this was going to be about those Verizon "Dead Zone" commercials. I wonder why they're all in a pile like that...maybe the incompetent employees put them in the pile. -
That's where you are wrong. If the family sues Six Flags, then Six Flags will almost definately win. Why? Because the park could not have done anything about it. And their rep is in the toilet for the GP, so they need the money and good press. If Six Flags loses the impending suit, it will be just one step closer to their demise. That said, I put all of the blame on the kid. He not only broke into Batman's restricted area, he also broke into the park. He and his friend clearly broke the rules and his friend will probably go to jail. So Six Flags is just about gaurenteed to win this, if it ever happens. But I still feel sorry for the family and the riders. I cannot imagine a friend of mine going that way.

Wow... That is insane!! I cannot believe how unique it looks. It looks like something that should only be attempted in NL. Hopefully it rides as good as it looks. -

It's looking great. I bet that the addition is a zoo area with some sort of family coaster, perhaps a spinner. -
