It's getting closer to spring, should be getting some news sometime.

It was mentioned earlier that they could be making a big announcement sometime in April. Not sure what could be better than this year's new coaster, but I'm always for new expansions!

So I feel like I already know the answer but we're planning a Holiday World / Kentucky Kingdom / Mystical Mystery Shed tour over Memorial Day weekend and were curious as to whether or not there was anything to do in Louisville at night.

 

I'm debating whether or not I want to stay in the Louisville area or if it's better to just head towards Cincinnati, go to Coney Island (any idea how late this place is typically open on weekends?) and find some random bar or something.

Both Cincinnati and Louisville are known for food and craft beer so you can't go wrong either way. I am honestly not sure how late coney stays open as every time i have gone I have been out early. If you choose cincy send me a message I will send you some links on places that might be of interest for food and drinks.

Downtown Louisville has nightlife, and most of it is centered on bourbon. I don't know if you're strictly a beer guy, but if you like whisky at all, there are plenty of bars downtown with good selections and even flights. I'd recommend Down One at 3rd & Main. If you're not into whisky, you might as well go on to Cincinnati.

Damn, we're just going to miss each other. We'll be getting into Louisville for a KK/quick GTFO of town trip for Emily's birthday on that Monday or Tuesday. (3/29 or 3/30)

Thunder Run, was never designed to run more than 1 Train, there was never supposed to be a transfer track. It was designed as it was, no need for a second Train. It couldn't be added, because there is no room.

 

Actually, when it first opened it had concrete footers where the on-ride photo area is now for a transfer track. They're probably still there under the dirt and stuff, not that it matters cause I doubt they have any intentions of adding a second train at this point. But, it was designed with adding a second train being the plan after a few years.

Ugh, that's a shame. I think a Worlds of Fun / SDC / SFSTL (because it's there) / Typical St. Louis touristy bullsh*t (Arch / City Museum / Cardinals Game, whatever...) trip might be coming up in the next few years. We'll meet up for a beer or two at some point down the line.
