djrappa Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Hi All So visited IOA for the first time today and of course was sad to see Ripsaw Falls down for rehab... Does anyone know when that and Poseidon are supposed to be back up? And sort of on that topic, why would they be cycling a 3rd train on Hulk Empty all day? (as a side note the seatbelts were coiled up and zip tied on that train) Thanks guys, I'm sure someone will have the goss. Only thing that sucked today was that for some reason they held off putting two extra trains on the dragons until about 3pm which it really could have done with earlier... why do that for?? Finished of the day today with some Elissa friendly food Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Johnson Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I think Ripsaw Falls will probably be down for a week or two more. Always around this time of the year it goes into rehab for a few weeks. I think Poseidon's Fury will open sometime soon since HHN is over now. But again they still had quite a few HHN items still standing a few days after the event ended. http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20160 This is a photo TR I did of IOA/Uni this past Wed.

djrappa Posted November 5, 2005 Author Share Posted November 5, 2005 So what do they do to Poseidon during HHN just out of curiosity? Thanks for the info, anyone got some more to offer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Turned it into a big 'haunted maze'. This was the one where someone in your group got a miners cap to wear which would trigger certain monsters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacking Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I believe Poseidon is set to reopen mid-November. (I've seen the 15th batted around) Ripsaw Falls isn't scheduled to reopen until December or possibly even January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonA Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 I was disappointed to see Ripsaw Falls "gone" when I was there on Tuesday, good to hear it's not drained to life. On another topic, is Busch Gardens' Rapids ride on a rehab too? It was closed and drained on Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterEricHP Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 I know Dragons is either down or going down for painting soon. If I talk to anyone there soon I'll let you know. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharkTums Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Yeah there were paint samples on it when we were there a few weeks ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Johnson Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Yeah there were paint samples on it when we were there a few weeks ago! Oh I wondered what those painted squares were that I saw while going up the lift. It does need a new paint job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nursemelis374 Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Oh no! I hope Dragons isn't down when I go to IOA next month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterEricHP Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 I talked to my friend last night and she said that there arent dates yet, but Dragons is going to be closed for approx. two weeks in January. So you should be all good! Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
