Ok i have been doing these cams and i have noticed that nightly these lights come on, then shut off. I know its probably something stupid but i am just curious. The midway camera says it stops at a certain time, nope its on all night. I sort thru the blackness and get the pics i want. Here is what im talking about.

A simple layer of the image with a daytime image shows that they're coming from the direction of the other Sky Ride station, but aren't at quite the right height to be coming from there. They appear, to me, to just be regular midway lights. It's probably just something with the timer they're on.

I think they line up pretty well with the other Sky Ride station in height. I think the lights are the ceiling lights of the west station.
I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,
than in the drink with a boat on the rocks.
If it's the other Sky Ride station, just check the "logs" from the Goodtime camera. It points right at it. Does it "go all night" like the Midway cam?
the goodtime cam stops at 8pm and turns back on at 8 am so i really cant tell from that camera

Is it just me, or is there something slighty creepy about the park completely dark like that? Not that it's possible but it would be quite scary to be in the middle of the park with all the lights out like that.

it's the aliens from another dimention (sp?) and they are invading the midway.......now CP has to catch them and get rid of them.
Add some Christmas lights, open a few flats and coasters that can and I see a cool winter wonderland! :)
For a couple of years I worked the overnight (or partial overnight) shift in landscaping. I'm not sure I'd call it creepy, but when all the lights are off on the Trail or in Frontiertown, and you're the only one back there at 4 a.m., it's certainly a much different place!
During the 2006 Season, I can remember being at Cedar Point really late. We were the one of the last ones to leave and I just remember looking down and seeing LOADS of fishflies EVERYWHERE. Eww. It happens in Detroit too. They were just scattered..

^^ Its a different place walking through there with the lights on during halloweekends with no one else around. There wasn't any fog left at that point but it sure was quiet...
