[RCT3] Hershey's Key West Park

[Kinderly]

The Hershey Company has decided to go down south as an expansion of their growing company. A new park themed to a tropical paradise, on the southern tip of Florida, and the area even has some resemblance to the original Hershey Park landscape. Hershey's Key West Park has been announced. The park will feature a small steel family coaster, and a small area themed to a chocolate factory, it will expand as the park expands. The company has released an initial grand opening date, but nothing is official. All we know is that the park will open in 1970.

September 25, 1969

 

I've heard that they are building a brand new park down here. I live just 3 miles away from the site. My friend visited the original Hershey Park up in Pennsylvania, and said it was one of his favorite parks.

 

It's 9:27 here right now, I have gotten into the park area and secured a photo of their coaster.

 

I got wet taking this one. It looks like this might be the ride finale, I can't wait to ride this!

It's been more than 24 hours so...

 

October 10, 1969

 

It's been nearly a month since I snuck into the park, and got pics of the coaster. Well I guess they've finished it because they were testing it.

 

It looks beautiful zooming over the river.

 

That is some complex lift supporting, I hope it's safe.

 

Almost got caught taking this one, the station building is awesome. It gives a tropical hut feel.

 

I've also heard that they will be opening on July 4th, 1970. Why is it so far?!?!

Looks like some kind of Schwarzkopf Looper!

[Kinderly]

I wish it was, but the ML06 track has no loop. The only way I can get a loop on there is if it were non-functioning.

 

Actually now that I think about it, that would be a good idea.

[CorkscrewFoley]

Don't put the loop in, I like it as it is...

[IronWolfman]

Yeah, it looks really nice. Next update, show us more of the park, too

[paradisecoaster]

Ok, this is now the park to look out for! And about the loop, I agree with the latest people; Dont put it in, it looks great anyway.

[JuanSe_Colombia]

Ok, I'm exicted.

[FLIPDUDE]

Okay theres some track pieces there (banked turn to sloped banked turn) that i'm pretty sure weren't in the original RCT3... WTF?!

[Ccron10]

Not that I want to ruin the story or anything, but there are quite a few holes in it. It wasn't until 1970 or 71 that the park announced that it wanted to transform itself into the Disneyland of the East Coast. In 1969 and the years before, the original park was in a terrible shape with little to no theming for the rides, the paths were cleaned once a week, and the rebelling teens during that time didn't help either.

What I see is really good, but it looks too good to be owned by Hersheypark at that time.

I'm in the group wanting to see another update. I really like how this is turning out.
