Top Thrill Dragster's trains

I was looking at the Top Thrill Dragster midway cam and the trains have been moved. Does any one know where they went I am courious thanks?

They're going through rehab right now. They take them apart and inspect all the parts and then rebuild them and they're ready for the season. Every ride goes through this process.

isnt it a little early for rehab. It opens in 3 mounths.

No, you have to rehab it and then test it which takes quite a while.

They start testing in mid-late April right?

They have to do rehab on every ride on the park. They start back in November or December and do each ride at a time. Do you expect them to do all the rides in a month?

Maybe they're testing the new theming on the back of each train! :)

I heard they were adding rocket boosters to the back of the trains to help it get over the top. If it senses a rollback, the boosters will kick in and give it that extra speed to get over the top.

I heard that they were planning on adding Donut Time donut holders for each seat for last summer. They later decided not to put them on the trains because they had to reroute the seatbelts.

You heard WHAT?!?

Nothing like a donut in the face going 120

I heard they were adding those to the Magnum, too, but the extra weight would have been too much on Magnum's foundations

Now I only counted 5 trains. 4 on transfer track and the red(I think) by the tree. Where's the 6th?

Cedar Point put it on eBay. Hurry, you can still bid...the auction doesn't end for another day!

Really how much?

Some where around a million........Plus $400 shipping and handling. :)

Hell, I'll drive to Sandusky and pick it up myself. ;)

You'll end up having to pay for repairs to you car from carring each of the 1,000+ train cars. ;)

Or that is unless you own a Semitruck. *** Edited 3/12/2005 6:03:18 PM UTC by TTD 120mph***

I found the sixth. It's been staring at me this whole time. It's the tarp covered object right in front of the webcam. I thought it was something else, like a big crate of.....something. But you see the outline of the seats.

A quarter ton pickup can pull the entire train (all six cars) with little to no trouble using your weight estimate. So you don't really need a semi for this job.

Now you should be able to continue on with life...
