I'm working on a list of weird CP statistics, and I'm looking for more! This is what I have so far...
300+ acres
4,000+ seasonal employees
2,000+ trash cans
14 world-class coasters
68 rides
44,000+ feet of coaster track
40,000,000+ rides in 2000
If anyone knows of any other weird sorts, I'd appreciate it! I got these off the official site (of course), and I really don't want any more to do with the coasters unless they're really out there. Any strange numbers you can think of, I'd appreciate! #s of guests, maybe tons of food per day or sodas served or stuff like that, maybe some employees out there would know. Only real stats, please, nothing phony! Thanx!!

Here's one from a pretty reliable source. Right between the first and second week in June, give or take a day, CP breaks even (financially) for that entire year. Every penny after that is pure 100% profit.

You forgot about the Antique Cars, the Cadillac Cars, and the Turnpike Cars in your list of Arrow rides. Also, among now-defunct rides, the Mill Race, the Pirate Ride, and the Earthquake were all built by Arrow. Furthermore, several Huss rides...the Witches Wheel, Troika, and Ocean Motion...were all added in the Arrow/Huss years, so while those are all Huss rides, there may (or may not) be an Arrow connection to them.

Hey, I thought some of the money went to some organization or non-profit place in Ontario? I seem to remember that in the news a few years ago!
