Galvan316 LIVE at Cyber Cafe Right Now!

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby Galvan on May 2nd, 2010, 6:04 pm
In what has been a simply beautiful day for coasters here at the park, 6pm and the park is starting to empty out. All coasters today have been open and the longest wait of the day was for Eagle actually, but nevertheless amazing day!! BTR, SUF have been walk ons.

Little update on the coaster formally known as Chang....

Those red markings in the parking lot are ComEd markings, along with the side of the far left side of the over flow lot blocked off. Interesting to say the least, No new peices of track as far as I can see, but then again STT has been closed all day.

Thats all for now!

Ameri-Go-Round should either be sold, or should be placed in an empty spot in the park, like Splash Water.

Those crates (at least 3) were not there last season. These are right next to the gate and very close to the parking lot/right next to it almost that is why I noticed them so fast

Ameri-Go-Round is like 75 years old or something I think. It has historic value, that's all I know.

They will NOT put it up again. And probably nobody would want it for another park.

As david mentioned, the carousel is of historical value. No reason for any other SF park to transfer it to, but they could put it up for sale and get a decent penny for it.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.
