True But I can see it, they have a relatively cheap price, and they can transfer the staff that used to be at the sky ride. It would also compete with the thrill rides Quassy and six flags are adding. But I can also see them having a maintenance year after all the problems that have been happening. Also I meant down time not power tower

Do we know anything about 2018? I heard a rumor about power tower getting a second tower.

^ It's more work than you think to shorten the ride

I can see all points of the argument but It still seems weird that they would choose to close it over other options.

Oh really, I thought they closed it after the incident at great escape

Me too, I feel like it would cost more to remove it than to the modify the restaints

I really hope they find room for it. I miss that whole lumber jack theme back when the log flume was around.

Its a combination of the parks choosing it and corporate approving it.

Honestly I think six flags did a good job adding rides. All look like solid additions to parks and didn't really cheap out this year. Also I completely forgot water world concord existed.

I very rarely read a thread for 16 pages but that was a good a trip report.

No they cant! It's sill stands out after 15 years!

I think they're cool but i wouldn't do a whole trip report of them. maybe on like one or 2.

benches that line the queue so you can sit while line so you don't get yelled at for sitting on hand rails.

I really hope it goes where slingshot, There should be plenty of room since splash water falls was bigger than the joker. I also hope the tea cups don't get removed. The other rumor I heard was it going where the queue for sky screamer is where catapult used to be. I also hope buzz saw doesn't get removed. But if we look in the past most rides removed from the park were ones that six flags did not buy so it looks like buzz saw is more likely to be on the chopping block than the tea cups.

I believe they can either put a parking lot, picnic area or amusements. Not sure what amusements specifically means. But if they move the picnic area to that field, that means they can put something where the picnic area currently is.

Went to the park today, surprisingly not too crowded. It was the media day for justice League Dark ride. First time in the park in about 4 years and last visit didn't get too much in so I was glad to get a lot in today and finally rode twisted colossus. Great ride 2nd best rmc I've ridden behind wicked cyclone.Riddlers Revenge was also closed for the media event so I guess I missed that credit. After getting a concussion on x2 I saw the fire work laser show for media day and the red carpet. Here's some pics. Fire works begin Here you can see the lights in the plaza Hard to make out but there were also spot lights and lasers I was actually surprised how good the fireworks were Grand finale They had all the super hero and villans on stage And here's the media red carpet

Headed to the park next week from the east coast. Any suggestions? Also Which week day is usually the least crowded?

Headed to the park for the first time next week, any suggestions? What the best day/ least crowded day to go?

Last year I know they didn't run 2 trains because something about putting too much stress on the supports of the brake run. I wasn't sure if they fixed it when they did the renovations.

Is boulder dash running 2 trains again?

How's wildcat running with the new trains?

At Six Flags New England I recommend doing wicked cyclone first. The line for that can get really long and moves pretty slow while superman's can also get pretty long but they almost always have 2 trains going with fast dispatches.

I'd be pretty satisfied if flashback just gets new trains.

Yes due to thunderbolts manual brakes it no longer runs 2 trains. But this year thunderbolts second train was on the transfer track. It hasn't been on the track for at least 7 years.

Anyone else notice that thunder bolt has 2 trains again?
