I think even Gravity Group is starting to make similar trains, with each row of seats being its own car.
YA Gravity Groups new Timberliner trains are basically the same idea.

That would be awesome yeah! Bizzaro, once Medusa, looks like it'll be good, will be checking it out next year!

Many of the Cedar Fair parks are full of theming which is a great bonus but what makes me really love them is the night life! So atmospheric and exciting, can't wait till i go to Cedar Point and check out TTD at night... looks incredible!

Oops, i'm a little of topic ... yeah Terminator ... can't wait ...

Theme Park Review has video of the ride testing. It looks so smooth and fun.

Looks to be a hit for the park!

Yeah, this thread is in the construction pages. I just updated the thread name a couple days ago with the name. I'm excited for this ride. I want to see the movie now too because I've seen the other three. It'll still take me years to get back to Cali but I want to watch the movie to prepare for this ride. I want to see the areas they want to turn into tunnels be completed.

That looks like the Park President/Manager in the 2nd row.

Got on Terminator lastnight and its SUPER FUN!

The pre-shows were crazy and overall the coaster really tops any kind of theming and ride experience in the park! Super smooth, fast the whole way through, direction changes, music, fire, tunnels, I mean this ride has everything!

I think this was a perfect addition to the park, and although it doesn't have super intense experience associated with the bigger rides at the park like Tatsu, Deja and X, for a wood coaster of this size, I don't see how anyone could be dissapointed. Hope you all feel the same way once you ride!

The flamethrower in the Ford Explorer hood is a nutty addition. It should have been a white Ford Bronco - hahaha
