Rolling Thunder is dying for the year...
The yellow train has been re-dis-mantled (taken apart again) and was sent off to be painted. The blue train has also been transferred off, dismantled, and sent off for painting... Maybe Six Flags is FINALLY getting my baby a new paint job?
So, the right side is pretty much done for the season... but maybe things are in the works for next year... They haven't sent out the trains for painting for as long as any current ops remember............

It's great to hear that something is finally going to be painted. With the positioning of the new flyer more people are going to be drawn to that area, and I would assume that ridership on RT as well as GASM will go up, so they might be anticipating that and fixing both of them up as well as putting in the new coaster. That would be great.

hey dan, if you so much in the know - how come you don't know that a complete painting of Rolling Thunder begins next week!

bigshow, if you look back though the posts you would see that first of all Dan no longer works at the park, so he probably has to get his information though people still in the park. Secondly Dan has repeatedly proven that he is "in the know".

not really big guy, the area where he thinks the coaster is going is way off --- want the true facts listen to a few others on this board - dan is most of the time wrong. watch in the next few weeks when construction fences begin to appear!

Dan called that it was going to be a flyer, in the plot, probably superman, but he wasn't sure. So far we have people that went to the meeting that say its a flyer in the plot, and there is a sign out front with the superman logo.

not saying he is wrong a guessing the public knowledge, from the township meeting. However, the coaster is actually going to go out into the parking area by the main entrance to the park, which, since i was at the public meeting is the actual placement of the B&M Flying coaster - ( the drawings had B&M all over them)
