ScreaminNewEngland Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Yup But i'd lower the expectations. Six flags isn't going to do 6 projects for one park in one year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastKoaster Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I'm just saying it has been done many times before in six flags history! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dschu Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Jen said nightwing wasn't coming back, but she never said it was gone. I asked her about what rides are in storage and she replayed that she will say them when she is allowed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScreaminNewEngland Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 At the nor' easter, she said that most of the ride was gone. The only ride in there now is DDD. The marvin kiddie ride was shipped to SFOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind Idiot God Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Jen said nightwing wasn't coming back, but she never said it was gone. I asked her about what rides are in storage and she replayed that she will say them when she is allowed to. Dude, it's almost assuredly not coming back. They got rid of everything except for a couple of inconsequential parts, and the thing was a maintenance nightmare that is probably even more of a bitch to get parts for now that HUSS most likely doesn't even make the damn thing any more. Just forget about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blind Idiot God Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Even if they somehow had it sitting around, they'd be stupid to bring it back as is. The thing was a prototype that broke down constantly and was very costly and time-consuming to maintain, and its waning ridership made it even more of a burden.

EastKoaster Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Waning rideship!? Compared to what, jokers wild? Most times I went to the park it was operational and you would normally have to wait atleast 1 ride cycle in line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastKoaster Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Cyclone confirmed to be closing on July 20th!! Way to ruin the parks announcement...... But yes that was what was leaked via radio stations today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I stated before it will formally be announced on SFNE twitter account at 6:30 am tomorrow morning!

Rollercoaster Rider Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 That's oddly my Birthday. I guess Six Flags wants to give RMC enough time to do Iron Cyclone? and Colossus Steel Coaster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yankeeman311 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Cyclone confirmed to be closing on July 20th!! Way to ruin the parks announcement...... But yes that was what was leaked via radio stations today I'm sorry but you can't get mad at someone leaking info here if it's true. This happens on a regular basis at TPR. We all knew about Gatekeeper and Banshee way before they got announced along with Zumanjaro and many others. I don't wanna sound mean but you can't read the forums if you don't want spoilers.

Well, there's a good chance one of them will be torn down to make way for a brand new RMC wooden coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, there's a good chance one of them will be torn down to make way for a brand new RMC wooden coaster. For the Cyclone, Just follow the IR method. Restore the famous drop, add a barrel roll, and steel camelbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastKoaster Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I was just annoyed because I was trying to understand the parks efforts of wanting to make the big announcement and I knew about the leak this morning buy I wanted the park to have all the glory for once but whatever, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastKoaster Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 But while we are on the subject it has been hinted at by park executives that the park may be doing something more of a prototype than the normal I Box with a lift hill, if you know what I'm hinting at..... It would be a kill two birds with one stone opportunity for the park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster09 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 ^or that this is the first I-box conversion for a ride located in the north east and wanting to get a head start before winter. SFMM will be in southern cali temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camthedominator Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 OH MY GOODNESS!!! Fantasy has become reality! By the way, has anyone considered a prototype idea like a cable lift or maybe even an electromagnetic lift hill similar to the one on Maverick. I know this idea sounds a little ridiculous nut if you think about it, the steel rails would be plenty strong to support that kind of stress and if it's an electromagnetic lift hill, they would really be killing two birds with one stone.

I didn't mean a different type of lift, I meant no need for a lift, meaning a launched hybrid, something that RMC has been working on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camthedominator Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Yeah, I think you are right. That would be a fantastic edition to the park considering it would be a world first, a huge publicity magnet, and it really bring some life back into the old thing. By the way, if you look on YouTube, there's a guy who has used No Limits to simulate what the redesign might look like... http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Iron+cyclone+Six+flags+New+england&FORM=VIRE1#view=detail&mid=23CB79F1BA3A5A4EAFFE23CB79F1BA3A5A4EAFFE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
