It didn't grow 78 feet, Carowinds advertised the tower as 340 feet in 1973 then numbers varied between 340 and 320 until Intimidator or Windseeker opened when they started listing the 262 feet number. 262' is the actual height of the ride tower.

Ya know Steam is outdated and barely exists in museums, it also goes no where a full head of steam. Which by the Carowinds has two other out & back coasters and they are recent additions.

Spending thousands of dollars just to intentional damage something that would have been destoryed otherwise is just silly. As far as the Plantation House goes, the new plaza has less heating and a/c units..... Cheaper Power Bill..... The Plantation House was removed because it was apparently beyond ...

The Sternwheeler was damaged "beyond repair" during a crane lift in which was being done to position the structure for permanent display. Carowinds asked Paramount Parks to fork out the money to repair the Sternwheeler, but Paramount Parks Corporate decided the Sternwheeler was "beyon...
