Nrthwnd Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 It's looking more and more absolutely friggin' awesome!!! Hope that another park (or three?) can figure out other ways (theme-wise) to enclose and use these types of coasters, in the new future, after Mystery Mine debuts? Hot dang there! Looks better and better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holtskee Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 .Another Mystery Mine article in the Mountain Press. This one doesn't really say anything new, however it does mention Dollywood was a finalist for IAAPA's 2006 Applause Award. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam_C Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Looks good, but am I the only one to notice how similar it looks to Efteling's "Flying Dutchman" ? Also Ive never seen a vertical lift hill before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acetcw Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 You should find vertical lift hill on Rage as well as they are Euro Fighters by Gertsluer, You really do not do coasters do you lol. Back to ride this looks so cool and inside to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wondering1 Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Did anyone catch a ride yesterday? I'm local and they had it running. Today is the 2nd sneak preview day for season ticket holders only. Ah, I found the report thread: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=34296 http://www.dollywood.com/rides-attractions/ride-detail.aspx?AttractionID=906 fixed the link - it was truncated - 906 not 90 -w1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.gumbo Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Erm..why did you link to 'fire in the hole' Maybe you linked to the wrong page, but it doesnt matter, it is you first post here! BTW does any one have any more infomation on the sneak preview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coug911 Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 hadn't seen a post on this thread in a while but thought I'd give some updates on Mystery Mine. Here is a link to the main site with a few animations and advertisements for the ride.... http://www.dollywood.com/mmine/defaultb.htm It is a custom design Gerstlauer’s Euro-fighter ride. It has not just one but two vertical lifts. The theming on the ride is spectacular as well as the queue line music. Entech Creative - Orlando, FL did the audio and visual effects for the ride. Here is a link to download the queue line music which is very sweet. It's almost like a cross between Edward Scissorhands and something from Harry Potter. http://www.dollywood.com/mmine/mmine-qmusic.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.gumbo Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 ^^ Sorry to break it to you but its been open for a while and the infomation you have given is a year late BTW Welcome to the forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holtskee Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Looks like Dollywood's problems with this ride culminated last night: WBIR (Knoxville) - Passengers stranded on Dollywood ride Timber Tower is a Huss Topple Tower, for those unaware.

Disney Dood Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Oh no, what a horrible tragedy. Why did the article say "passengers stranded on Dollywood water ride"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterviper Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Because to certain people they think that ride is concidered a water ride since water is involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I noticed when I was there last week they kept having to stop the ride to run it empty, but I'm not sure that has anything to do with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgathriller Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Wow thats pretty funny. My cousin who is about 7 went to Dollywood with her girl scout troop and exegerated what happened. She said that she had just gotten off the ride and the next group of pople on it got stuck for 6 1/2 hours. lol. So do Huss Topple Towers have problems or was this just a Timber Tower thing?

christianscoasters Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 First X-coaster, then this? What's next? 400 ft. tall drop tower stuck at the top? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shavethewhales Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Ah, what's this, the fifth major problem they've had with it? Plus I've heard it breaks down constantly. I guess we won't be seeing one at SDC anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holtskee Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 After reading through the comments on WBIR, apparentley the ride was actually stuck for about 6 hours. The ride malfunctioned around 6:30, yet some guests were on it until midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesdillaman Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Wow, problems with a giant Huss ride? Who would have guessed!! [/sarcasm] After all the problems I saw at KI with Tomb Raider and Delirium, it's no shock to me. Remember the local celebrities getting stuck on Delirium, wasn't it Ken Griffey Jr. or somebody like that? -James Dillaman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnage Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Oh no, what a horrible tragedy. I would hardly call this a "horrible tragedy". Rides get stuck all the time. It's not anything to get upset about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not anything to get upset about. It was a joke! I know rides get stuck all the time, in fact, I've been stuck on a few rides before.
