cal1br3tto Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 That ERT session alone made the trip worthwhile! My sentiments exactly. I kinda want to say that seeing the Glow Train off-ride is almost as good as actually riding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Werner Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 After the EPIC night at Knoebels. It was a early morning for a lot of us. But still there was another park to visit: Hershey Park! We started out the day with some ERT on Fahrenheir and... ...and Storm Runner! 2 Times the Intamin goodness! Just see that GP Intamin love... We also got a tour trough the maintenace area, and that place is massive! The techmap of Hershey... N.E.R.D.-shot And the TPR tattoo shop was open during lunch! And some more Storm Runner during lunch, no we didn't eat it... And some Intamin goodness for next year... Thunder or Lightning? You deside... And we see some more Intamin goodness! Not much seats filled right now... This speaks for itself i guess... And still no winner? Damn! Schwarzkopf loving... LOOP! With that sweet B&M sound... We had some time left to watch this show... And ofcourse all these shows have a MJ part! Up next: Dorney, Dorney, Dorney Park! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted March 17, 2012 Author Share Posted March 17, 2012 Well it's time once again to head back into time and to relive the RTCP trip. Today we head back all the way to Dorney! Now that's a big Duckie! Yes we are really here... Dude! How long has this trip been going on for? 2 weeks...? We had some quality ERT on B&M's It's the Jojo-Roll..!! Enjoying the Hydra guys? Soon the park opened but you could still have ERT on almost everything you wanted except for the waterpark. Hooray! It's Dorney's biggest ride! And my first first generation Intamin droptower... Ohh NO! Their doing that Jojo-thing again! Time to look for the Kiddie credit, it has to be here somewhere... Three BIG thumbs up for the Grip of Fear! Zoom, zoom... And here we say goodbye to Dorney... After this we went of to Kennywood... but that's for the next time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatle11 Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Dorney has some pretty solid coasters, and Demon drop was not nearly as rough as I expected it would be, except maybe for the transfer at the end. Nice pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disneyfan1313 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Some *great* photos! It really brings back the memories with Knobels - that ERT was phenomenal! I still watch that video and am amazed that happened... that is truly what makes TPR trips awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Werner Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 It's been a long time since the last update on this, so here we go with Kennywood! Welcome to Kennywood! Coaster this way please... But first! Turtle time... They look ready for action... No, they don't have one of those Big Dipper roller coaster. But you can get some fresh eggs in this park! We didn't ride much coasters this night. But we saved that for the second day..! It started with a blast! But not as sunny like here... Just a great and fun ride, perfect for a park like this During lunch the park mascotte served us lunch... Also a lot of 'classic' wood in Kennywood. This makes the park already something special. We see you..! Down the first drop... ...and up the hill! All the rest is HISTORY! What a ride! Up next: Kings Island! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatle11 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Kennywood was one of the nicer parks on the trip. That ERT on Sky Rocket was one of the more ridiculous things I've done at a park, Phantom's Revenge is now one of my favorite steel coasters, and the Potato Patch is awesome!

Werner Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 And it's full speed ahead towards Kings Island! Welcome to Kings 'Coca Cola' Island! New B&M trains hotness, or not? Why must B&M have a splashdown on almost every new ride they build? At least we had kiddie coaster ERT for everybody! New,new, new... Windseeker! One more spin on Daimondback... Time for a walkback tour around The Beast! Backstage you get the best views of Diamondback too... Tour guides, lets take a long walk guys... First drop ride expressions... And some more... And after that seconds picture, my camera shut down. No more battery power So that means no more pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
