I'm with ForgottenEE. There's something about the smell from the CP&LE ... and the sound. I think the train itself is central to the Cedar Point atmosphere.

Smell: The Smell of the lake by Wicked Twister on a nice warm day. (and not that polluted smell)
Soud: The sound of being able to hear many coasters and rides all at the same time stading in the middle of the park.
Sight: Viewing the fog lift off the point from the causeway on those early morning trips into the park
I also agree with Walt and ForgottenEE of course.
Smell: Anything that involves the railway.
Sound: Judy K's whistle.
Sight: Little children's faces when they wave to the engineers. :)
From everyone on the CP&LE, RIP Mayor Scott...~
Smell: Definately Fries
Sound: Prolly Corkscrew going right overhead or Power Tower's Pooosshhh BOooohhhm.
Sight: Walking through the main gates or taking the road around the peninsula.
Just thinking about all this stuff fills me with some many great memories:).

Smoking Marijuana isn't a bad thing or even a good one, like everything else, its what you make of it.
Smell: Burning coal on the CP & LE
Sound: The total impact on the ears! The mix of lift hills combined with the roar of plunging coasters, backed by the Guess Your Weight/Game barkers, sprinkled with random bits of conversation.
Sight: The slow panorama from the top of the Space Spiral.
Tank
Magnum: 187.5... Walkdowns: 1...Walkoffs: 1...$9W:0
There are 5 senses...
1) Sight: Top Thrill Dragster from almost anywhere in the park & Looking down from the top of a lift hill right before you dropppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp!!!!!!!
2) Smell: Smelling the sunblock that is on your face & the lake water through out the park.
3) Sound: Power Tower launches & "Enjoy your day at America's Rockin' Rollercoast Cedar Point"
4) Taste: Chilli Cheese Fries from Dragon's Inn
5) Touch: Grabbing the lapbar on any of my favorite 16 coasters until you reach the "drop zone" and then it's the feel of the air pressure on your hands as they go up in the air over your head.

Smell: The smell of all the wood on Mean Streak.
Sound: Hmm...Tough one - "Baby, I'm Ready to GO!", or "ARMS DOWN!...ARMS DOWN!........ARMS DOWN!!!", or perhaps on WT: "You are clear, and I don't mean transparent!"
Sight: The sight of Dragster's giant christmas tree tower as you drive away on the causeway.
