SteveStL Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 The Boss getting the RMC treatment, best of all we can finally can get rid of those G-Trains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sportsdude360 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Iron Boss would also have G-trains, but they would be the latest design like the ones on iRAT and NTAG. Also, The Boss would have a cool new nickname like "iBOSS" or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveStL Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Didn't know Gerstauler made those trains... learn suptin' every day I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodie Warrior Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Well, if SFSTL does get Iron Boss, we should know earlier than we normally would if so. Because they'll have to announce that the Boss will close and give the date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathbydinn Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Huh, never seen a ride with a sign at the exit and entrance before. I could see that confusing a lot of guests. Cool sign though and it's nice to see how bright it is since that area was kinda dull before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenFreeze Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I'm still not too fond of the park getting a boomerang, but I actually think it looks great! It seems to fit the park well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zcev5454 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Boomerang has began running ride cycles, but it has been confirmed that it will not open on time( June 1st). Really didn't look like it would open on time as it only had 1 car about a week-2 weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pixelated85 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Nice pics! I showed them to my color-blind boyfriend, and he says "Why would they paint the whole coaster brown?" ... ... Poor fella... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveStL Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 So what happen with the old bumper car fleet? trashed, scrapped or to rust in the boneyard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFZIP Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 The old bumper cars are in Six Flags alternate dump (the employee parking lot), along with the enterprise cars from Fiesta Texas, Ninja's third train and the wrapped Boomerang train from SFOT.

A.J. Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I still wonder why Six Flags St. Louis decided to use Flashback's train instead of purchasing a new one like Carowinds did with Carolina Cobra... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinnwitted Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I still wonder why Six Flags St. Louis decided to use Flashback's train instead of purchasing a new one like Carowinds did with Carolina Cobra... Probably since Six Flags did not want to pay more for the 23 year old coaster. I'm just saying because wasn't Carolina Cobra one of the newer ones when it was moved?

A.J. Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I see your point, they probably didn't want to spend a ton of money. But, I don't think that old age has anything to do with it. Gardaland's Magic Mountain and Efteling's Python are older Vekoma coasters than Flashback and yet their new trains were warranted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Geauga Lake might have bought new train for their Boomerang coaster (Mind Eraser/Head Spinner) before they closed and the train were moved to Carowinds with the coaster.
