I heard mf had an old green train underwater, is this true, if so, how'd this happen?
The lift originally was meant to take only 2-3 seconds.
After the green train incident, they slowed it down considerably.

Smooth point - since it's your first day here, perhaps it's not a great idea to start so many threads.

Thanks, now next week I have one more question then I'm done for the year, sorry if I annoyed anybody
Questions aren't annoying. Though if you have questions, you can almost certainly find a pseudo-relevant thread to ask them in, rather than creating a new one.

I can't find a thread 4 my question next week, I have never found a big question like my recent: fast lane times, mantis and mean streak questions, best place to sit,. I have many questions but just need a few this year, I'll just ask if I find a good thread to ask it on, I never can.

This actually happened the year Millennium opened. The park had only been opened several weeks, and it happened during a morning test run. Like JuggaLotus said, originally the lift was really fast, and something went wrong and the train basically flew off the top of the track. Since it was only a test run, nobody was injured since of course nobody was riding it when the accident happened. There was one injury, but it was from a man on his boat in the Marina who had a bolt from the train fall on him. It wasn't too serious, thankfully.
And I remember seeing the video, since an employee was filming the ride when the accident happened. It was pretty crazy just seeing the train fly off the ride and fall down into the lake. But within several hours of it being posted, the park found out and removed it immediately due to fear that the public wouldn't want to ride it. It was a pretty crazy thing that happened, and a lot of enthusiasts were shocked that something like this happened again. It was bad enough when a Blue Streak train flew off the turn-around and landed in the parking lot a long time ago...

You forgot about the CP&LE railroad car that jumped the tracks by Gemini and is currently half underwater in a kiddie pool inside Soak city. I do recall seeing something resembling a skyride car at the bottom of the Renegade River once....Have to check on that this weekend.

Thanks, lol I can't take this seriously because my stupid mistake on the title, my train underwater, LOL
Well, make a replica(or fish it out) and put it infront of mf, put a plaque telling a VERY exaggerated story, BOOM! Hallo weekends awesomeness.
And yes somebody earlier had this idea, but not many saw it,
Surprised somebody didn't look for it in a boat, or scuba dived :)
In line scream "Oh my god! The green train!" Lol
