Yes that's it! And I was wrong, we rode it at Kennywood.

Wildcat, definitely. I don't even like luminosity.

Instead of Luminosity.....I still prefer the nightly laser show. Was a great way to cap off the night.

Not sure if it counts as a 'ride', but I would say bring back the Funhouse.

Western Cruise in its original configuration (not Paddlewheel Excursions).


I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,
than in the drink with a boat on the rocks.

I miss a lot of past rides, but the one I miss the most is Disaster Transport.

In a perfect fantasy, ones I'd like to see are:

Disaster Transport
Space Spiral
Paddlewheel Excursions
White Water Landing
Schwabinchen
Pirate Ride
Mill Race
Demon Drop
Wildcat

Not exactly a defunct ride, but I also miss when Super Himalaya went backwards (or I am confusing it with another ride at another park). But I'm pretty sure it was CP... when I was younger, I remember it would run forwards, stop, and they would make everyone cheer before they starting it going backwards again. The loud music, and the fact that you could ride it with two other people was always an exciting ride.

So, Magnum1870 - what you're saying is, you want 1993 back? :)

Space Spiral is one of two rides I've ridden that aren't there anymore (the other being Turnpike Cars), so I wish that could return.

I never got to ride this one, but I'd bring back Paddlewheel Excursions with these changes.

Dammit, Noggin. 6 minutes too late.

But I'll drink to that.

I had stupidly convinced myself that this is what Gatekeeper was going to be; well, a reincarnation of it. But yes. This.
