Title: Lighted Rollercoaster Wheels for Wildfire
Post by: sdcfan88 on April 21, 2019, 09:20:43 PM
Found this on YouTube: https://youtu.be/35LdsktC-_8
Uremet (manufacturer of rollercoaster wheels) has introduced light up wheels.

Considering that Wildfires 20th anniversary at the park is in 2021, this would look really cool with Orange & Yellow LED's on the wheels. It would be a fun way to commemorate its 20th with this little "upgrade".

Cool looking but I wonder with the angle of WF how well you would notice them.

Those are awfully bright.  If you look at the footage, even when it's light outside you can see the lights lighting up the ground below the trains.  They would be plenty easy to see on Wildfire.
