Ride/Park Database Changes

[Chip]

But some people may still count it as two. That's why it's there as two. Actually, Blackpool's Grand National is also listed as two in our database. If you count it as one, mark it once. Simple as that.

[rckrazy06]

Gold Rusher at Kennywood should be listed as a Past Ride now. It is still in the Rides section.

[James]

This coaster - Unknown (Happy Valley) :: ThrillNetwork.com - Isnt real...

Way to check facts TNDB....

[Alan J]

Well the coaster is real but its at the wrong Happy Valley. The coaster is going to the Shanghai location.

[James]

Yeah, I know that.

But thats like saying Tatsu is going to Six Flags New Orleans.. Just because its also called Six Flags

[steel]

Rockin' Roller (Six Flags St. Louis) :: ThrillNetwork.com
This ride is gone.
No wonder I couldn't find it on the map yesterday.

RCDB lists it as a past ride.

[James]

This park - Jolly Roger Amusement Park :: ThrillNetwork.com - Needs the "Giant Wheel" as a past ride.. And also needs to add the new for 2008 Wildcat... That I rode a month ago.

Edit.. I also looked back at the last page to find most of the stuff had yet to be changed... :roll:

[James]

Windy Hill Waterboggan Park :: ThrillNetwork.com

should be watterboggan.. With two T's

[I love DW]

On the Dollywood page:

• Smoky Mountain Wilderness Adventure Tour can be moved to past rides operating from 2002-2007.
• Thunder Road can be taken from past rides to the current rides list. Operating 1996-2001 2008-Present.
• And I don't know if it is done for "seasonal attractions" but if Thrillnetwork wants to you could even add The Polar Express 4-D Experience to the rides listed opening November 8, 2008. Polar Express Dollywood page.

[Carowinds 73-03]

Flying Super Saturator can now be moved to the past rides section on the Carowinds page.

SFOG
Dodge City Bumper Cars opened in 1973 with Scream Machine.
Wheelie was originally placed behind The Great Gasp and later moved to where it is now, because Drunken Barrels was still there when it was built.
Spindle Top was built in 1968, closing date unkown.
Sky Way was built in 1967, and removed around 1981/82?
The Hanson Cars were originally where the Georgia Cyclone is now, built in 1967. All items above are complete - Wes 11/14/08.

Fearman's Manor needs to be added.
Skull Island needs to be added.
Sky Hook needs to be added under past rides- operated from 1969-1977.

• This needs to be listed 3 times.. As there are 3 tracks - Steeplechase (Blackpool Pleasure Beach) :: ThrillNetwork.com - TN is only listing 1, yet other racing coasters have all sides listed.

• This has been removed from the park - Gauntlet (Camelot Theme Park) :: ThrillNetwork.com

• Edit.. I went here back in 2006.. And it still hasn't had its coaster added - Santa's Workshop :: ThrillNetwork.com

• edit edit.. This whole park needs to be added - Parque de Atracciones de Zaragoza (Zaragoza, Zaragoza 50.007 Spain)

• And this coaster - Haunted Roller Coaster (Krazy City) :: ThrillNetwork.com - Needs to be renamed Midnight Express
• Also this park needs its coaster added - Adventure Landing :: ThrillNetwork.com
• Time Warp (Six Flags New England) :: ThrillNetwork.com Should be in past rides.
• This Nightwing (Six Flags New England) :: ThrillNetwork.com has been SBNO all 2008 as well as most of 2007. Also.. In the "History" it says "Did not operate during the 2005 season.", thats wrong.
• This Junior Coaster (Toverland) :: ThrillNetwork.com was never named "Junior Coaster" - Its named Boomerang (and had been named "Achtbaan" (Dutch for Roller Coaster)
• Edit.. I guess THIS is named wrong too - http://database.thrillnetwork.com/ri...ini_mouse.html It should be Fiesta Express.

Staff edit: Wow, bullet points! That sure made this list a little simpler.

There seemed to be confusion with the Columbus Zoo's transformation and integration of the former Wyandot Lake into the Zoo's offerings. Even up towards Labor Day, looking at the Zoo's website it was hard to find information about the dry rides section and their availability. Columbus Zoo, the golf course, and Zoombezi Bay easily stand out. The dry rides info is finding a needle in the hay stack. Finally at the end of October when I went to see my sister in Columbus, Ohio and to watch a Penn State Ohio State game, I was able to get a map, visit the park/zoo in person to sort this mess out. At the new entry/ticket plaza to the Columbus Zoo there is a sign to the left of the new plaza that says "Jungle Jack's Landing." On the map it's a brown color coded path dry rides section
It features:

Jungle River Falls - flume ride with at least two drops/lifts.
Sea Dragon - the wooden family/kiddie coaster that's the gem.
Condor Craze - I believe this is the inflatable tube bumper cars you drive like a ride on mower.
Whirligigs - Twirl a Whirl
Dust Devil - Eli Bridge Scrambler with nametag intact on center boom.
Safari Stampede - not a Musik Express but a ride like it with cars that swing out.
Journey to Zanzibar - Pirate Ship
Mission Macaw - Flyers with no cables to limit the sail
Swingin' Gibbons - Swings, doesn't appear like a Yo Yo model
Jungle Trek - an antique car like ride but with Safari Jeeps, most likely electric.

Then near the border of this section with the Zoombezi Bay waterpark is:

Jungle Jack Junior Land - I didn't walk through this kiddie land. It was still under the brown dry rides color coded path on the map.

Jack's Tea Party - Very likely junior tea cups
Tiny Tusks - rip off Dumbo ride most likely
Golden Frog Hopper - no real explanation needed
African Express - A small train ride.

Zoombezi Bay then borders Sea Dragon and this Junior ride land. On the map it's lined by a light yellow paths on the map.

Hopefully next season the park will make these sections more clear for us on the website.

[James]

I still see some of these haven't been done yet - http://www.thrillnetwork.com/boards/...tml#post770719

I'd like to get my coaster count at least right on TN.

[Marcus]

Steeplechase has been seperated by Left, Center, and Right tracks.

Fixed a typo on Gauntlet and updated it's relocations.

The park Parque de Atracciones de Zaragoza has been added to the database along with it's roller coasters.

[James]

Thanks a lot.

Also this coaster - Tiger Terror (Wild Adventures) :: ThrillNetwork.com is now here - Lowry Park Zoo (Tampa, Florida 33604 USA)

And this - Lex Luthor's Invertatron (Six Flags New Orleans) :: ThrillNetwork.com came from Moreys Pier (After Moreys it went to Magic Springs.. but it was only held in storage there)

[Michael C]
