GAcoaster Posted December 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Rolling Thunder began life as a good coaster, and with a little bit of love it could (like Charlie Brown's Christmas Tree) be GREAT. It needs re-tracking and new (or completely rebuilt) rolling stock. Other Six Flags parks actually send their PTC trains out to PTC to be completely rebuilt each year, but GA never does. It could go a long way to make the ride better again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Justin Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 SFGAm does their Maintenance on Eagle trains too. Not good. So, I agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideOfSteel Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Rolling Thunder would be a great ride if it got re-tracked, and new trains. Maybe some buzz bar only trains like Phoenix at Knoebels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew M Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Topper Track! Cyclone in SFoG is doing it so GA shud to. Cud really bring life back to the ride especially if we cud run a side backwards again. They havent taken RT down yet which means they definitely wanna c it stay so GA really needs to show some love and give it a rehab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Rolling Thunder would be a great ride if it got re-tracked, and new trains. Maybe some buzz bar only trains like Phoenix at Knoebels. Getting rid of the seatbelts would be nice since that is one of the causes of the very slow loading and dispatches. I don't think that can happen though since I remember reading that PTC considers the seatbelt the primary restraint now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyChrist Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 It'd be nice for them to refurb those trains so they aren't screeching around the final turn all the time, oy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThemeParkRider Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Yeah this is pretty far on the top of my list. I think with all said about the track, the trains should be redone to be more comfortable too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
