TPR's Ever Evolving Park Index

[Johnlloyd]

If you want signs for the all-new Skyhawk and Flying Eagles at Canada's Wonderland, I can provide you with those photos after my visit on Wednesday or Thursday. I provided you with a couple of photos of each ride but didn't provide you with photos of the signs.

Yes, please,thanks

Relating to Photo TR's, I did one of my local park (Thorpe Park) and would be happy for it to be used for the Pakr index. Also, once I get back from Norway, I can send some pictures of DBGT.

[Coastinmiller]

Sorry Larry, always forget to check this thread before my journeys. Here's a pic if Beech Bend's spinning out (with the old man in it). Did not get pic of sign though.

[cfc]

I can provide some shots of Movie Park's Lost Temple sign and queue. I have House of Nightmare pics from Grona Lund, too.

 

Thanks Chuck - because this site has idiot's like me, who went to a park(Lagoon), knew I needed a picture of a ride sign (Bombora) and then deleted the photo

 

Here are the Lost Temple photos.

Next time I get out to Valleyfair I'll try and take some photos of Flying Eagles.

 

Also, the Antique Autos are no longer closed at VF, and Hydroblaster is closed.

 

I'll take a closer look at the index over the next few days to see if there are any more errors.

[larrygator]

Mike, Chuck, Josh - thanks

[ytterbiumanalyst]

Larry, here's a picture of KK's Raging Rapids' entrance plaza, which includes the ride sign. Maybe you can crop ot, or just use it as a placeholder until you get a better one.

[larrygator]

^Thanks, using as a placeholder for now

[Geauga Dog]

Over The Falls was removed from Martin's Fantasy island. It only lasted one season.

[Canobie Coaster]

Here's the Knoebels Power Surge sign.

Here's the Knoebels Power Surge sign.

 

You beat me to it, I took a photo yesterday

 

thanks

Hi there,

I noticed that Breckenridge Ski Resort was not listed on the index. If you need some help with the rides and photos, let me know.

We are not planning to add Ski Resorts to the Database of Theme Parks and Amusement Parks at this time.

I took a few at Valleyfair when I went last Friday. I had a bunch of photos not turn out, so I'll have to go retake them and then I'll upload them, but until then, I have these:

 

Flying Eagles Ride Sign

Flying Eagles

Northern Lights

Northern Lights Ride Sign

Enterprise

More Enterprise

Ferris Wheel

Power Tower

 

As for the actual wording of the index, I noticed a few errors:

- Mild Thing is closed

- Park Guide mentions Hydroblaster and the Log Flume, both of which are closed.

- Austin Blue’s doesn’t exist anymore, but mentioned in the park guide

- Stadium Pizza & Grill is gone, replaced by a Chickie’s and Pete’s

I think it would just be good to say that food is standard with that of Cedar Fair parks. I’ll look around next time I’m at the park, but I don’t recall seeing steak bites or walleye at the restaurants.

- Linked website in the “Operating Season” part of the index brings you to an FAQ page now, hours can be found at https://www.valleyfair.com/hours-directions/valleyfair

- The link in the “Nearby Lodging” part of the park guide should be replaced with this: http://lodging.valleyfair.com/hotel/list/6555/m3204

- For the shows, none of the shows currently in the index exist anymore, at least not under the same name. All Wheels Extreme was added this year. I’ve heard that that the Acafellas, an acapella group, are pretty good, but have never caught them myself. Also, there’s Beach Band, a small marching band that wanders through the park occasionally. And finally, there’s Restoration Revue, that plays songs that were popular in the last 40 years (Haven’t seen these guys for myself, either, but heard good things about them).

- The Imax theater is gone as well, for the shows.

 

Hope this helps, I'll have more sometime, but really have no idea when

Found a slightly better photo of Championship Rodeo than my previous one since I'm determined to keep the Everland section nice I'll try and visit Children's Grand Park since the whole park has been overhauled and its park index looks quite sad and empty. The folk village with the old intamin coaster has had a few new rides and doesn't have a page so I will try and work that in sometime if I can get some free-time. Both have been on my to-do list but having a new-born eats up most of my weeekends.

[Johnlloyd]

Here's a photo of Skyhawk's signage. I'll try to get a photo of Flying Eagle's signage when I'm at Canada's Wonderland again in a couple of weeks.

 

[larrygator]

Thanks to the dozens of people who have helped to pare down this list of needed photos.

 

If anyone has an opportunity to review their home park and provide feedback we can keep The Park Index as accurate as possible, I can't do it all myself.

 

Please submit only your own photos. Do not take them from another person or website.

 

You can post your photos of any size in this thread or in your Trip Reports

Or you can use the submission tool in the Park Index, but in that case please resize your photos to 800x600 or smaller before submitting, otherwise they are difficult for me to review and place in the Park Index.

Or if you have any of those photos already in an existing PTR just send me a PM and let me know.

Here is a photo of Flying Eagles' sign that I had captured while at the park today since it is new this year.

 

[SixFlagsAstroworld]

I took a photo of Fireball's sign in March visiting SFSTL.

iPhone 6 photo

[SixFlagsAstroworld]

I was searching through ride photos for SFSTL when I saw pictures of Luna Park Thunderbolt in the Tsunami Soaker page.

Just pointing it out

[larrygator]

^That was odd, thanks for pointing that out. It has been fixed.

[9Armgeddon4]

I got some SFGAm ride updates and one SFOG map error for you Larry.

East River Crawler, Jester's Wild Ride, Orbit, Splashwater Falls and Sky Trail should all be listed as closed. Goliath is still listed as closed. Also while going through the maps of SFOG I noticed the 2008 map opens to a SFOT map.
