Cyber.Fiber Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I was driving to my grandmas house, when we passed a transport with a flatbed on the back. My dad said "Hey Joey is that roller coaster track?" I looked out my window and saw huge sections of track made by B&M. At first I thought it was track for Tatsu but then I realised that we were going towards Quebec and remembered Goliath was being built at La Ronde. Later when I was at a compition in Ottawa during Goliaths Opening I was just like "Dad that is the Roller Coaster that we saw on the 401 when we were going to grandmas house!" It was pretty sweet!

coasterdude5 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Yeah I saw a piece of Silver Bullet on I-40 heading west back in 2004. It was pretty cool. I believe it was the top portion of the loop but I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgwfreak Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I've seen several travel models of rides on the interstate before and one of my friends saw the track for Runaway Reptar arrive at Carowinds (I know, you're impressed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I've seen SheiKra arrive in pieces near BGA's parking lot. Â I have also seen a berry go round on a truck on the interstate. Although its a ghetto fair ride and not a major new coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelTheFORCE Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I have only seen fair rides being transported, never any track or supports for major themeparks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goliath513 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I often see ghetto fair style rides being transported in my town because we have a fair and a carnival every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost007jas Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I have a vague recollection of seeing Zonga track arrive at Discovery Kingdom while I was driving on the freeway. Â I remember how excited we were to ride that...ah good times lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airtime&Gravity Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I remember seeing B&M track in 2005. I was in Misery...I mean Missouri and it was on the highway going from St. Louis to Six Flags. It was in the fall, so it is possible that this was the track for Tatsu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niiicolaaah Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 My freshman year of college, I was driving home northbound on I-90 and I saw B&M track on flat bed trucks. It turned out to be for Vampire at La Ronde. I had never been so dorkily excited, lol. Unfortunately I didn't have a camera on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnage Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 At first I thought it was track for Tatsu but then I relised that we were going towards Quebec and remembered Golith was being built at La Ronde. Â That truck would have been really, really lost to end up in Ontario 3000 kms away from Southern California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Not sure if this counts, but I have ridden in a semi pulling a racked Zipper. My friend's dad was a truckdriver, and his friend was a showman (or worked for a showman) I believe. They were moving their warehouse, and I got to ride along in the truck pulling the racked Zipper (I think thats what it was, may have been something that looked similar when racked. I don't really remember. This was back when I was 8 or 9, long before I cared about this kind of thing). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
