Gone rides that you never got to in time...

Talk about anything that has to do with the amusement park industry here.

I'm pretty sad/mad I didn't get to ride Psyclone and Flashback. But, it's not a HUGE deal, because I hear Flashback was no big deal, and Psyclone was a Screaming Metal (well, wood) Death Trap. Zonga also looked pretty cool. I'm sooo glad I rode Speed: The Ride though.

I still have to look in Rolling Thunder as I only saw a couple very faint pics of the ride. I think it is somewhere in Alpine Valley now last I heard...You just don't see names like that anymore for rides.

Yeah there is going to be a court ordered auction, however most of the ride manufacturers were never paid in full and have liens on the rides, which would mean they would more than likely become property of each respective ride manufacturer, in which case they would retake possession and put their rides up on the used rides market, unless they believe they can get more $$ from the park auction (extremely unlikely)
