The Plantation House is still standing but the exit cover is gone as is Guest Services and Thrillseekers Gift Shop. The bathrooms are still standing, and the temporary gate is confusing as hell. It makes entering Carowinds like entering a carnival. Yes I know....tem....po...ra...ry but still it seem...

Never rode Italian Job but I would have welcomed it. Story I heard is that it was an option for 2006 but Carowinds wanted watermark expansion. Rumor I heard was removal of Whitewater Falls and Frenzoid.

Nah, more than likely, it will premium parking. This isCedar Fair not Paramount afterall.

Looking at the webcam, the pergola next to the Paldium appears to be standing.

For Satie, which is no longer there.

The guns and water system was also refubed in 2006.

Ok, explain why Saturator was repainted a couple seasons before removal.

Ed, there was a roller coaster of theirs under construction and a crane fell on it. This was be in the late 80s or early 90s. I have a stack of company newsletters and flyers from that period in Arrow's history. It would still cost upkeep to keep Skytower if it is just a monument. As far as putting ...

When is the last time Carowinds brought new trains for existing coaster, 1980(Thunder Road)? Cobra doesn't count, it was new installation not new for 2005 and new trains in 2009.

Josh, was the same system installed on Batwing and Firehawk?

if rumor goes round that a business is closing and the rumors are true then why do businesses address the rumors saying "Everything is fine, we will be in business for many years to come."? The answer is fairly simple, it is the way business works. I ain't saying Skytower is coming down fo...

No, not really like Vortex.

Icon or not, rumor went around early in the season of it's removal. Skytower has been SBNO most of the season, there are signs addressing this. In the business world, addressing rumors and reassurance that the rumors are false normally is a false front. If the captain says "Remain calm, the shi...

Frenzoid was stored in the boneyard, Gr8 Sk8 is no where in sight. I doubt it is coming back, the odds of Skytower being removed are higher.

Rode Scream Weaver today and noticed two things:
1) The part of the grate covering the pit is missing.
2) The paint is sun faded.

Plus didnr the gondola's have lights on them?
