Where is Corkscrews White Train?

When I was there last weekend the WHITE train on corkscrew was missing and nowhere to be seen It wasn' even in that storage place below the station. I don't think they need a third train on it because the trains stack like crazy. When you have to wait on the block brakes longer than the ride lasts there is a problem!;)

Check out the far side of the Mean Streak queue, its most likely keeping a CCMR and the two Gemini trains enjoying their year off company. If they have decided to only run corkscrew with two trains max, they will cycle the trains on a yearly basis.

I also noticed that the trains from double loop are also inside mean streaks yard.

That is cool to hear part of the Double Loop lives on! I was really upset when I was at the auction last year and found out the Double Loop was sold for scrap! Then when I saw it go down, man what a heart ache! I know that I really enjoy the Corkscrew at CP because it reminds me of the Corkscrew and Double Loop that we lost from Geauga Lake!

That makes sense those trains came to Cedar Point considering arrow went down. Thats basically what they did with Whizzer (SFGAm)is that they took all the other rides that ran that car that were in the US and when those others went down Six Flags bought the trains to use as parts donors.

The trains are probaly for parts

From what I understand, cedar point paid almost half of what the ride sold for at auction for the trains. They got all of them except for one of the middle cars which was traded for some go carts.

To me that is epic fail. Although I can see the team meeting to decide that one. Hmm do we want the middle car in the train, or do we want GO KARTS?

Watch the go karts in Challenge Park for about 5 minutes and you'll see the need for new karts. :)

The karts were traded to someone from the scrap company that bought the double loop, not cedar fair, before cp wanted the trains.

Corkscrew now has 3 train operation again.

Is it 3 train operation, or 2 train operation with a third train on the track gumming up the works?

I thought I saw all 3 running at one time durring the day. But I do remember seeing the blue train on the transfer track also.

I think if the third train didn't stop on the brake run, i would love this ride. This could help capacity plus not have the rider wait twice as long as the ride to exit. They could fix this by having the train come in when the train leaving the station when its half out of the station. I have noticed now that they don't check seat belts(what saves alot of time).

-if they ran 2 train operation, they could replace the long barke run with a heilx.(i know they wont do this.)

The safety belts on Corkscrew are different this year. They now have a push-button buckle attached to the shoulder bar and a strap attached to the seat. As a result, the belts are slightly easier to fasten and a lot easier to unfasten. This might speed things up a little from last year.

They rotate the trains and if there is any problems with any of them they derail them and take them to the shed and fix them there so it doesn't interfere with the operation of the ride during park hours,but have you noticed that the white train is faster than the others,even the operators have said the same about it.

I have not noticed the added speed of the white train. But I have only been on the ride once this year also.

Anybody else notice the trains from double loop(geauga lake) inside of mean streks bone yard? I wonder if they are using them for parts, or if they plan on replacing the old corkscrew trains soon.

They are Probably using the old loop 2 loop trains as parts it would not surprise me at all!!!

Why it's in the lake with Millennium's Green Train

?..Huh
