Re: Other 2015 Changes

My guess based on pictures from CP is this sign will face the gate, interesting and different but I bet that did this to try and keep it out of the way. Any word of the old Paramount's Carowinds letters in the Carowinds plaza are still intact? Looking at the webcam waiting it to be installed.... Tha...

I don't see the park opening any earlier than first weekend of Spring. SFOG opened in the last weekend in Feburary one thia(2005 I think?). I have seen flurries called for on Opening Day before. 2006 I beleive and the park almost closed early and the rides were down to basic positions only.

The new coaster that hasnt been annouced just seems like a bad choice, it is bound to have worst capacity than Cobra and Ricochet.

How often did anyone see Kookaburra Bay open last year? Of all the visits I made, it was only open once. Ideal spot to build a larger waterplay structure.

They would have to get PTC to agree to it, otherwise the state won't allow it. For now, PTC does not recommend their trains go any other direction than foreword.

Highly doubt they would have spent probably $4 million or more rebuilding to just tear it down a few years later.

Ya know I think it will take more than a CEO change to turn Sea World around, more like a total change to the whole board and upper management.

Mike replied to a tweet the other day about fanny packs, he said that they will interfere without lapbar. Just passing along information.

^My thoughts too, Thunder Road will be 40 in 2016. Both Rebel Yell and Racer have walkways under it, plus didn't someone(more reliable source) here say that Carowinds has plans for Thunder Road's 40th anniversary?

Well Barbwire did make an interesting comment recently but I also look back through his posts, I think Carowinds is putting this rumor out to mess with us.

The transfer track is not operated as block brake during normal operation on any coaster in the park. None of the coaster trains are stopped on the transfer tracks during normal operation. Furthermore when a train is removed from service on Hurler, the other train is left in the station. A train may...

Why would the transfer track be counted as a block? The block brakes on the B&M coasters are behind the transfer track. Same for Hurler; the transfer on OddCoaster and Thunder Road arent block brake either.
