It’s great that the park fixed(added) the effects on BTR. Can we get a repaint back to its OG color scheme next.
Yeah I know it’s not going to happen though.

I thought you were talking about Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. : P

The OG color scheme will probably not come back until it turns 50 or something
Old Great America was better, however I hope just a bit of that charm comes back

Demon's lights in the long tunnel have not been on the last 2 times I rode it including 6/25.

Anyone know why the lights aren't on? I asked the operator yesterday but she had no idea. It's quite different flying through that tunnel when it's dark (even in mid-day)!

I also wish they'd turn the lights and sound effects for the skull back on!

Lastly I really wish they'd turn the sound effects for Giant Drop back on (swirling wind, eagle cry)

^ Can they get the 6th row running also.
It’s been running only 5 for as long as I can remember.

AGREE 100% !! Yesterday it was running only 3 cars (probably due to lack of personnel) but the line was super short so I got 6x total on Giant Drop!

Just drive a few hours to Saint Louis to see it in black. Plus STL’s version drops to the right instead of the left like ours.

I actually like the current colors at Great America.
