There has been talk, just talk; about a wooden coaster taking the place of Echo Hollow.
The characters in the Flooded Mine are modeled after real Citizens (employees) of the city.
There is a section in Fire in the Hole that has been removed. I added this to Wikipedia before I knew of this site.
“An interesting fact to Fire in the Hole is a section of the ride has been removed. After the first dip (Collapsing Bridge) the ride would turn right and later reconnect in front of the second dip. (Train Collision) If you look close at the scene where the cabin is burning there is a moon and some stars above one of the old track areas. Also when you see the sign “Kinney Bridge” on your left is a large open area where scenes once existed.”
I peronally don’t remember this section in Fire in the Hole, does anyone?
Hi,
I have been reading the forum and have really enjoyed the memories. When I was a kid the Fire In the Hole was a little longer. At one point the train would head toward a piece of glowing twisted track that looked as though you were going to fly off into the canyon below. It was only visible in the front, but was a really nice visual. At the last second you would whip in another direction. It might have been the whip that became a liability making them take it out. The trains were car or two longer also making the ride a little faster. Anyway, great site!
Also, the tree house ended with a small dark cave with hand rails and the only thing that lit it up was what seemed like a million little stars. The cave is still there right next to the christmas shop. When they closed that portion they just diverted guests out a different exit.
