I was just wondering if anybody knows where these two coasters would have gone. Or does anybody know if they were sent to Chippewa Lake Park in Medina. The timeline is within 5-10 years of these opening and closing. Comparing old pictures they resemble each other. I know that there were many of both kinds built, but thought that since CP only kept Wild Mouse for 4 seasons maybe it was sold to CLP. Just curious if anyone has any information about these.
It kills me that no one seems to have photo of the Wild Mouse. Even in the various offices and such around the park, I've never seen a photo of it. Yet I clearly remember seeing it in real life when I was just a little guy.

Acutally Jeff, there is a photo in "The Queen of American Watering Places" book. I also think there is one in the coasters restaurant around the corner and to the left of where you walk in.
Come to think of it, maybe I have seen the one in Coasters, because what you describe is really familiar. I haven't looked at the book in many years.

You might check Walt's history section from the previous Virtual Midway. He's got video from 1960 that also shows the wild mouse in action.
