pianojohn Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 I had a Groupon to get 1000 pictures scanned and put on DVD, so here are some from my one and only trip to Boblo Island back in 1985. I remember the Vekoma corkscrew was new that summer, and it was not too bad. Here is more info on the park itself: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boblo_Island_Amusement_Park Now on to the pics!

Philrad71 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Thanks for sharing, John....that steel out and back looks like it could have some interesting air time. I was also wondering if those trains on the Vekoma were from the Corkscrew at CP? Didn't they use to have a ride, white and blue train or was it always one red, one white and one blue train?

Geauga Dog Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Very cool photos of what seems like a forgotten park. Wonder if there was a rule that all three coasters had to be all white. ^Vekoma used Arrow trains back in the day until they started building their own therefore these were not from Cedar Point (CP's Corkscrew had three trains - one red, one white, one blue).

I'm guessing that all of the coasters were white because white paint is cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
