About not being up high enough in the chain of command... One of my sources is a water park supervisor. The other is a dry rides director, who oversees a certain zone of the park to which they are assigned. So i'd say the director would know whats going on, in the past he has given me spot on info, I really just think he doesn't know of anything, which means not to expect too much. Usually there is info to be known by now, or at least rumblings from within.

So I talked to a few of my sources, one hasn't heard ANYTHING about 2016 plans, the other one hasn't either but did say the company/park/whoever runs the show wants to at least add a new ride every year. What that ride in 2016 will be?? I'll keep digging, but it sounds like we may get something, although probably not something spectacular. I'll keep taking to my people and see what else is going on! And I'll get some pics of the boneyard while I'm vaping there is August, it's in the back near the ampitheatre. Some cool stuff back there. I know in the past they have used pieces of old rides at fright fest.

I have a question for you and your "sources". Is Darien Lake being sold before 2016? If so, who and what are thier plans? I didn't read this before my last post lol, whoops. #1 I myself am curious about the sale of the park, #2 I will talk to my people tomorrow and see what I can find out about both topics. My sources are people ranging from waterpark management positions, to security personel, so I can ask a few people what's up.

I used to be a member of those forums, while I don't know who you are I think I can guess I believe my username was Boomerang17! and ill talk to my people at the park tomorrow and see what I can find out. I'm sure we all know but obviously B:TE is never going to be built. but it is interesting that they are keeping it around. it is just an eyesore. And I know for a fact the 2 trains for it are still located out back in the boneyard. Why they wont scrap it, I don't know, but If they ever decided to do a REAL Halloween event like Six Flags used to run, I think it'd be cool to do an area themed like a roller coaster disaster. Scatter a few pieces of track, tip over one of the trains, add blood, and dummies, give it a catchy name, and there ya go. I will reach out to a couple old friends tomorrow and see what I can find out about why these coaster pieces are still here, and 2016 plans for the park. Does anybody know if DL is up for sale or whats going on with that though?

Hello All! I'm new to this forum, not new to Darien Lake forums. I used to be a member of the WNY coaster forums back in the day before they closed the site. I'll introduce my self a little, i'm 20 y/o from a suburb outside buffalo, about 15-20 min from Darien Lake. I've been visiting the park many times yearly since I was a very young child, and have been a season pass holder for 13+ years. I worked at the park, in the waterpark as a lifeguard from 2009-2011, and have many friends who still work at the park in management positions, which gives me prime connections for unreleased info, and future plans, and being a former employee I have some knowledge about how the park runs and the behind the scenes things. Occasionally I camp at Darien, and will be camping this year August 7-11 in one of the lakeside cabins. When I return from my trip this year ill post a nice, detailed trip report, with some awesome photos, and ill keep my eye out for constructions, markers, or signs of next years plans. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask, and either I or one of my sources at the park can hopefully answer it.
