When does CP start testing their rides?

I think it was the yellow train. Because I remember being excited that it wasn't on because I do not like that train. :)

First Top Thrill Dragster train of 2011!
Rollbacks: 1st Triple Rollback of 2009!

I don't think Gold train ever made it out of storage last season. I'm pretty sure they ran with 5 all season.

Gold train was in the one building next to shoot the rapids last year.Red was still near corkscrew a few weeks after the season opened.


2007 trips=39..08 trips=47..09 trips=79
maverick rides=143
dragster rollbacks=27

They keep Millenium Force's green train in deep storage.

^ I thought the green train derailed in Lake Erie?

I guess that would be "deep" storage! ;)

As long as there's 4 trains, they can technically test. I've also heard an interesting rumor regarding Dragster. Nothing crazy, but it'll be a first in a long time if and when it does happen.

Engines, tires, or fins? :)

Now why would you say that and then leave us in suspense? Rumors are rumors, but I personally still want to hear them and kinda want to know what this rumor is.

Back to six train operation?

They will run the Ride in Reverse?!?!?!

I know, they're replacing the rolling stock with Timberliners...

Theres a good chance that one of you COULD be right.......maybe. ;)

It's going backwards! Good guess Sealedseven, so would a rollback be now considered a roll forward? ;)

Well it be interesting to see the program return to 6 trains (if that's what you meant). I wonder what the new concrete strip near the Finish Line sign is for?

Adam, I'll take my Snoopy cookie now, if you don't mind...

Is this the second time you've requested a Snoopy cookie from me? I remember another Snoopy cookie request and it's too obscure to be asked by anyone else on here but you. :)

And I can't confirm pointperson. All I can say is wait and see. And as for the new concrete path.....I have an idea to what it might be. But that's something I simply can't tell.

So I'm the most obscure-est of them all? I can live with that. ;)

If this rumor happens I will love it. It looks like Cedar Fair took care of their park's theming this year. King's Island recieved a lot of nice little details and CP sounds like it is getting some as well. Great job CF!

^ Is there a web link to that rumor your talking about?
