Minor Updates, Rumors, and Happenings
Taylor still says its still rough and a head banger. It's not the trains its the track
Then, is there a way to retrack Iron Wolf (sorry Firebird) so it could be less rough and more comfortable. From what I know it's much harder to retrack a steel coaster.
How come Lightning Rod is never open when I go.
Top 10: 1. El Toro 2. Steel Vengeance 3. I305 4. Fury 325 5. Maverick 6. Mako 7. Iron Rattler 8. Medusa Steel Coaster 9. Raptor Clones 10. Maxx Force.
They were able to do it to Ninja now blue hawk as SFOG
why does raging bull only have 2 trains and #3 is not even in the shed

The same reason it does every year at the beginning of the season....Maintenance At least that’s what I’m thinking Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
who knows the eagle noise in SW territory what is it

^ I'm assuming you are referring to the anti-rollback strips that the trains engage as they approach the top of the hill prior to entering the helix. The loud "clicking" noise is the anti-rollback dogs on the trains coming into contact with the strips on the track.
I think they are talking about the eagle sound effect in SWT but I'm not sure what the question is.
yes what is that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
It’s a sound effect. Of an eagle. I gon' cut you...
It's an eagle sound that is played from speakers at the top of Giant Drop.
Been to may theme parks, in many countries. However, SFGAm is my home park and I love it!
There's also a whirlwind sound as well! Those are both really cool! Single Day Ride Count Record
50 rides 8/17/2018 (Without Flash Pass - Coasters After Dark) ---- "Here we go, kids!! Here we go!!"
We got it timed perfectly once. We got to the top and heard the wind howling as we were held there. The eagle cawed and a second later we dropped. Really added suspense to an already scary ride!
Great time at the park today. Raging Bull was walk-on around 12:50 PM. Except for the front and back rows, you could have marathoned this ride for most of the afternoon. Most rides were walk-on throughout the afternoon, with absolutely gorgeous weather. For me, this was the best day I've ever seen at the park. Amazing.

Does anyone know why X-Flight has been running one train this season? We always want to go on it when we go, but I'm not waiting any longer than past the station building.
I hope they restored the regular coaches while they were at it. They need some love, especially since they will be bart of Maxx Force.
Today Eagle Blue side was running, and X-Flight was running both trains. I saw the Maxx Force trains from Condor, over by Superman. Whizzer had a few employees in the station but there was no sign of any testing.
Whizzer is open today!
Great news. Hopefully someone will post a POV today.
Hmm Pretty sure phones or cameras aren’t allowed while riding..... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
^ They never said anything about camera glasses!
 No camera of any type is allowed on any ride Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
They took off the County Fair train station sign. No LETTERS! I don't know why. Whirligig has a much longer ride time than it did before. I feel like Condor has new motors. It feels faster, and it stops on a dime when it ends the ride. Maybe, I'm wrong on that, but it just feels like it. Superman, (to me) looks like it's almost done being painted completely. The carousel had no carousel music playing. It was very silent / WEIRD! Near Revolution, they play all that County Fair OLD / CLASSIC music.
Whizzer has a flash pass person at the front of the entrance. This makes no sense whatsoever. A person could just cut from the regular line to the flash pass line, and not be seen (where the main line is). That's a stupid decision by the park. They didn't have a flash pass person at the top of the stairs. EDIT^ They changed it to back to normal again. (Flash pass person near the station). Maybe, some flash pass person didn't know where to stand on that other day. Last edited by Ilovthevu' on May 29th, 2019, 1:14 pm, edited 2 times in total.
