Thats not how businesses work. Assets depreciate over time, most likely 7-10 years.


Yep. If they knock down the stage they have to write it off on their books, which is a pretty (really) expensive one-off item.

^ Wouldn't be surprised if they cancelled it due to Goliath not being ready, but I guess Rock the Block or whatever it's called is still a fitting replacement to an extent.

I believe it's just called that because it's a "Coaster Con", but it's in the winter, so there are no actual coasters involved (it's just at a hotel). So, it's a "No Coaster Con".

Kind of off topic, but since I guess this is the "2014" thread..

Have there been any sightings of 2nd and 3rd trains for rides yet? I know they haven't added any yet, but have there at least been any cars on transfer tracks or something?

^ One Teal Raging Bull car was under the back overhang of X Flight's storage track last Tuesday. Nothing at Eagle Blue, Demon, or Whizzer yet. I doubt much is going on with them either with how much Maintenance has been helping out at Goliath.
