Title: SDC Video Circa 1970 - Recent Youtube Postings
Post by: OutlawRun on October 13, 2024, 05:32:22 PM
Hello, everyone!

I ran across a couple of very interesting SDC videos tagged as being filmed in 1970.

This one has some of the best footage of the stagecoach ride that I have seen.

And a second video that has some street performances.

I think I need to dial in 1970 the next time I ride Time Traveler!

The films reflect my memories that, alas! are no longer repeatable.  That is the SDC I want to visit:  no coasters, smaller crowds, ridin' the green trams, non-PC robbery skit . . . .  All sorts of great things.  There is talk of a stage coach themed coaster nowadays.  Gimme the stage coach. 

Pointless to pine for a better city, I know.  HFE wants to make gazillions, and they likely will.  But SDC has always meant the Past for me, even in 1970 when I was 6.  The Past is no longer ahead of me, obviously.

^ Hello my friend!  Yes I posted about the Stagecoaster concept but I too would love to see the actual Stagecoach brought back for rides.  I too rode it in my youth and miss it.
