  1. Didn't the hill where Thunder Rapids' tunnel was bigger before Shipwreck Falls was built?
  2. ^Are they removing Thunder Rapids at this time of season?
  3. Because it may be very expensive to operate and maintain? Think about how many employees, water pumps, etc are required to operate that ride? I don't have the exact data, but it's not like parks remove rides to be Scrooge McDucks for the fun of it. Or do they? Also Arrow went out of business in 2002, so that kind of plays role in the Thunder Rapids issues since replacement parts of an old Arrow log flume are hard to find and expensive, but are there other companies that still make log flume rides?
  4. Can't Darien Lake just relocate either Shipwreck Falls or Thunder Rapids to another part of the park in order to make room for a new coaster, if they ever get one?
  5. Both have roller coasters that have reached the 300-foot mark Kings Island and Kennywood?
  6. My guess regarding Thunder Rapids, is that Darien Lake is waiting until school's out so that they can have enough people to run it. I have just one question has Thunder Rapids always opened when the water park opens for the season?
  7. If you ask me, it is indeed sad to see Darien Lake "die" as many old ride have left the park within the past five years (with the exception of Scrambler). But most of Darien Lake's flat rides are old and have been with the park since the 80s and Darien Lake has replaced two of their old rides; Raging Seas with a used Space Shot tower and UFO with Rolling Thunder.
  8. Both are defunct roller coaster of Kings Island. Disaster Transport (Cedar Point) and Chaos (Opryland)?
  9. Both had coasters with "Cobra" in its name! Darien Lake and Silverwood?
  10. They both had Superman themed rides! Alton Towers and Six Flags Magic Mountain?
  11. Stairs Catdog or ratdog?
  12. They both have the word "king" in their names! Six Flags Great America and Six Flags America?
  13. They both start with the letter "K" Canada's Wonderland and Kings Dominion?
  14. They both have big coasters that have exceeded the 400 foot tall mark Six Flags Discovery Kingdom and Worlds of Fun?
  15. They both have a Batman coaster! Cedar Point and Six Flags Fiesta Texas?
  16. They're both indoors! California's Great America and Worlds of Fun?
