Its really is a shame for us that covid happened, even if covid could have waited a few months we would be having a much better 50th. Wonder what Bruce Springsteen would have thought. Fact #2: Turns out there are senarios where the breaks will fail to stop the train on 2nd gen intamin towers.

I wonder what other rides had their last riders in November? Wonder what ROBIN HOOD would say? Maybe he's going back to his dungeon?

Speaking of the now Defunt Oak Island. Fun fact, in the Spring Sixflags bought out all their warehouses and two haunted houses that were sold to KK and shipped most of it to Texas for distribution at a later date

There's been talks since it was accedently removed. The cost to replace isn't cheap and their has been no funding available to fix it unfortunately...yet

Thank you, we do try

Anyone know where the new flat ride is going next year?

From what I understand is that it was confirmed it would reopen, just not at SFMM. The Zac Pin is moving next year and Tidal Wave isnt opening this year. Hmmm

Troll? Nope we're getting late ronde's park president, it was announced yesterday.

Here is my first go at it. This is about half of the 71 pics I have. Please be kind I have only spent about 10 minutes on this thus far. http://sfsl.azurewebsites.net

If i can find the old drive I had all the content on, would anyone want me to put out there the old photos from 71 and some of the other random crap we use to have out there?

$3,000 +/-, its being looked into for next year. Some well meaning maintenance works cut out the wrong cables, destroying the pumpkin.

Crowds shouldn't be too bad.

Boss won't be because it can't run below a certain temperature (although I can't remember what that temperature is), but the whole Illinois section of the park was closed off last season because of Boomerang and with it being re-opened now all the rides back there should operate, we should get a info dump about HITP with all the rides soon after FF is over If memory servers correct its 50 degrees. I highly doubt they will install heaters like SDC does for Outlaw run (I think).

14 cars on site.

I am probably going to regret this and please don't quote me on my own site. Theres a reason why I didn't post there. This is what I know; It appears that four complete trains are on site, they arrived Friday (July 3rd) morning. Sorry next time I will try to get more pictures. These cars look like they are in pretty rough shape, there is more rust than paint on some of them. I think the mega zepth ones sitting in the grass look in better shape. I would say there is a good chance if they track well they will be put on SE, if not probably parted. At this time I am hearing conflicting reports. However I would say its a good chance they are going onto SE. The last time SE got new trains was 20 seasons ago and the original pair was only on the tracks for 15 seasons. Oddly enough two days after I sent that photo in I was at HW and ran into a group of SFKK employees. It sounds like from their accounts that whole section of the park is going to be leveled, the bad news is they didn't sound to hopeful that it would be replaced. Hope that was a little helpful. I will see if I can find out more. I cant believe its been 4+ years since my last post.

I would have to say the most I have ridden any coaster by continually staying in the same seat was the Boss in its first season. The only reason why we got out was because one of the kids we were with decided to go and pass out mid way through. We all however regreted it the next day. All of us were sore and had rather large brusies. I guess serves us right for sitting in the back. :o
