Great to see some classic footage. I do worry about the future of Coney Island with Thor Equities in charge. They're building a casino on the land that's currently Luna Park (which I may not exactly love Zamperla's Luna Park, but I do love the Cyclone). We know where that often leads. Even if they replace sone of the Zamperla junk with rooftop coasters like I've seen in some renderings, I just worry about a land developer like that right next door to the Cyclone.
To anyone who still wants to ride this ride : it is still up! Just , now outdoor. This ride in located in Amarillo , TX at Wonderland Amusement park. Unfortunately , many have complained the ride is much slower and way more boring being an outdoor ride. I never rode the indoor ride , but it seemed so much better.
0:53 the choking sound played pretty late here. It was very old back then so it makes sense that Terror Castle was getting started on it's ghost train life span
Fun fact: the footers and station of this coaster still exist, 22 years after it was removed. Nothing at all has replaced its skinny plot, which begs the question, did it really have to go?
Beste Achterbahn ever. Respekt vor dem Kamera-Mann der trotz schwindelerregender Höhe hervorragend gefilmt hat. Mir hatte es immer gereicht zuzugucken. 🙂
