Orient Express used to be one of two coasters that had interlocking loops. Now only Lochness boasts that.

Yes and it was the superior of the two. Even with a one train operation.

I sent the pics, Cove26flags, enjoy!

While we are on the subject of taken down roller coasters: Don't you think it is sad and sickening when you see a coaster being taken down? I know if I had seen shockwave being taken down I would be sick to my stomach because I was one of the few that liked it.

Sure .. If it was something you had great experiences on, then it is a sad event. I liked Shockwave a lot, but it wasn't as difficult to see it shut down as it was Horizons and possibly Orient Express.

I know I would have been really, really bummed to have seen Whizzer taken apart.

It is the nature of the business though and it will continue to be so. Some who didn't like Shockwave or had a connection to Shockwave - give those who still voice their feelings for it grief, but sooner or later those people will be in the same position when they see their favorite coaster removed. It will happen eventually. Sooner or later a Raging Bull or a Viper will be removed.

Dude, get a grip on yourself.

I LOVED shockwave, rode it 7-8 times a day. But, when I tried S:UF I felt as though it were better



Sorry about that I don't know what happened with the color :cry:
Goodbye 11/9!

Um...sorry to kill your theory there but it would be impossible to have some of those rides...
BTR took Tidal Wave's place
Iron Wolf took Z-Foce's place
SUF took Shockwave's place
Rolling Thunder was sorta in SWT.
