Great to see the guys at Knoebels keeping the history alive! And it's great to see their back on their feet after the storm! Awesome work! -
The "GP" of Theme Parks Facebook Thread!

Yeah, because it's totally the maintenance crew's fault that someone fell out. Ride of Steel is closed because the lift chain snapped. -

What's so secretive about B&M inverted trains... -
I'm looking to take a large group of about 50-75 people to Great America and was wondering how We can go about getting ERT on two or three coasters. Who should I contact? I contacted the SFGAm Special Events people and they gave me an average per person, but said that they cannot finalize anything, and didn't tell me who I should get in touch with. Any help is appreciated!

I'd have to say mine is V2 at Great America, but I haven't gotten many launch credits. -

May 1986 James Family Farm Introduces Mine Swing, The American Drop, Marine World, and Carribean Cruise to Celebrate 10 Seasons! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjiFxh6ezgw The Skyline has changed drastically! Mine Swing is a unique roller coaster designed by Arrow Dynamics! The mine cars swing as you fly through turns! The American Drop is a parachute drop designed by Intamin AG of Switzerland! Climb and drop 135ft! Carribean Cruise is in the all new "Marine World" themed section. This boat simulator will give you all the true feelings of a true cruise on the ocean! Scrambler got a new coat of paint to fit in with Marine World! The latest rumors swirling around say that Twister will not operate this season.. hmm... -

August 1985 It's been a quick and busy season, and it's time for is to start preparation for our 10th season! Wow! This looks interesting! This sign is seen many times around the park. The west was never THIS wild! Join us in 1986! What could be happening here? The outdoor seating area at the ice cream parlor is closed during construction. MORE construction?! I like! Yellow beams, what could these be for? Tidal Wave is looking good with it's new paint coat, and logo! So is Crazy Planes! I'll see you for our announcement on September 2, 1985! Tim James -

May 1985 It's finally opening day of our ninth season of operations. My name is Tim James, and I am the park manager of James Family Farm. A view of the original plaza. Our famous freshly squeezed lemonade! Barnstormer takes you up 40ft. and swings you in bi-plane style cars. Twister, a PTC coaster added in 1981, lives up to it's name! Sky Wheel was added in 1980 and is currently down for maintenance. Olive Tree was added due to the high traffic of small children and families. This Ice Cream parlor was a part of the original plaza and was renovated to add a beautiful sitting area in back. Scrambler was added in 1976 and has been a favorite of many guests due to the fast launch! Tidal-Wave is a prototype ride added in 1980 and is a ride that many teen guests like to brace. Whirling is also a prototype ride added in 1980, not many guests choose to embrace this ride, but the ones that have love it! Looks like a bit of construction is going on, is it for good or bad? Have a great day! Tim James -
RollerCoaster Tycoon on Nintendo 3DS

Just to show where Atari's heads are at, they have this on a failing platform, but they have yet to make an iPhone, Android, or WP7 game. Wow.
