Six Flags New England (SFNE) Discussion Thread

Thunderbolt also gets really crowded as there is only one train.

 

Good to know! Thanks!

Just visited yesterday, Bizarro is running way better this year than 2014!! (in terms of the actual ride smoothness/speed, not operations)

Also, I watched Goliath testing and it should be opening this weekend if all goes well! Hooray?!

 

Not big on water parks but the water coaster peaked my interest and, if it's hot enough, we'll see.

 

Just keep in mind that like a regular coaster, Water Coasters are very prone to breakdowns! I'm a big fan of waterslides so I enjoyed it, but it wasn't my favorite attraction in Hurricane Harbor and it has possibly the longest wait at the entire park! (Still a worthwhile experience)

Good to hear Bizarro is running better this year. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to visit the park this year.

The line for the water coaster is pretty much the most Six Flags New England thing ever. Operations on that thing are mind-numbingly slow. I don't really think it's even the parks fault though, it just has terrible capacity.

 

That being said though, I love the ride and it is worth doing once.

New awesome Wicked Cyclone picture!! Track work is almost complete. A little less than 50% of the track is left between the two zero g rolls then it is finished. Once they are done with track work and bracing, it should be testing!

^ Looks great!

[Genx24]

^^ Drop dead gorgeous. Pun intended. I can't wait for this to open so I can rush up to Agawam and ride it until I pass out.

[Superbatboy]

Crazy headchoppers, looks unreal

[TyRush]

Wow I cannot wait to ride this

[temleh]

Holy mother of God.

 

This and Medusa look like the best Iron Horse's in my opinion!

Love the way the zero-g's are stacked. Really awesome design choice, RMC really knows how to make a coaster look as good as it rides.

[glucky11801]

I am getting more excited by the day to ride this beast! Finally an RMC within 2 hours drive. Woo Hoo!!!

[BoulderDash]

Much like Colossus there are many layout changes from the original pov video. The triple turn sequence on the 3rd turnaround is now an outwards airtime hill, and the hills before the first roll and after the second roll are different, they look more insane!

[Jcoaster]

Shaping up to be the best looking coaster of 2015 IMO.

[Mater]

Definitely one of the best.

[I305forever]

The sad thing is that despite this being ten hours away from me, it's still the closest RMC.

[Superbatboy]

I definitely have Wicked Cyclone envy, I hope to get to the east coast again this year and ride WC, Bizarro, Skyrush, and i305

[DoinItForTheFame]

I love the look of the stacked zero-g rolls. Very unique. This coaster has come a long way, and I can not wait to see it up and running!!

[gerstlaueringvar]

RMC is probably winning tightest clearance award on this one. Now if there's a walk way underneath them...

[Manic Monte]

I swear RMC are the new Intamin. And if Twisted Colossus is the S:RoS equivalent, then this one is Expedition G Force.

Hello everyone,

 

I am possibly flying into Boston in mid-July (my dates are tentative) and am wondering about transportation to the park. I am doing research and have seen Peter Pan buses as an option. Is this bus service safe/trustworthy and has anyone on this forum used it before? Are there other options too? Car rental is out of the question.

 

Thanks!

[SFOGdude25]

Oh my...

That looks almost too tight. Crazy!!

You really can't beat the PeterPan price idea... I have a friend who lives in Boston and will be trying it out in a few weeks when we go together! I'll have an update whenever we decide on a date. The only other option would be Amtrak, but that still doesn't get you to the park...

Intamin will still be better than this. In my opinion, RMC is the reicarnation of arrow given that they always try and push boundaries.
