Y the heck not? The worst that could happen is they say no then u say ok thanks and move on. If u never ask u will never receive and I wouldn't want to miss out only to find out later all I had to do was ask.

The lights they use when they are working on the ride. They are in all of the tunnel and some flood lights in the areas with scenes. It was pretty cool and all I did was nicely ask the dispatcher is "if I come back at closing will u let me ride through with the house lights on?" And he said sure.

Oh and on a side note the park was really slow today and I rode the flooded mine and got the to turn the house lights on. It was pretty cool.

Well I looked all around the WB area from GG and didn't see anything but on the train u can see some stakes and a few trees with orange marker flags on them. Also someone mentioned something about the new trees they planted still being in burlap sacks so I checked them out and it looks like they planted most of them on top of the old WB exit path and then spread mulch out. I guess they didn't want to go through the trouble last off season to break up the old concrete.

Well we just back from sdc and I noticed while riding the train that there are orange marker flags in the woods where WB used to be.

i know this is super old but i got to looking through some of the links on this post and thought that swoosh would enjoy this (if he hasnt allready seen it)

"Yes there is a section of the ride that has been removed, it happened in 82'. "Well that is incorrect. Once again proof that you cannot believe anything that is on wikipedia. The train has always turned left right after the burning bridge scene to go past the hold-up scene of the wagon into the railway tunnel. The three drops are boom-boom-boom." This was posted by a guy who goes by Swoosh in many different forums. The guy is an idiot and always makes claims and ends up being wrong. He also likes to tell people he has inside connections to everything. The guy needs help"

Just wondering if you ever "got help" swoosh :-) jk

well my dream is to go to college and then come to work at SDC as a manager in the Maintenace and Construction dept and i would do everything in my power to keep the theme up. I agree if they keep on there downward take on themeing then in a few years they might as well put up 6 big flag poles out front and be done with it.

If you must know i live withn a few blocks of the DD at 44 and kansas expy and all i can say is thank god they put it in! The trafic there use to be horrible but now it is much better. For new people it is a little confusing but other than the ocasonal old person stopped and confused i havent seen anyone with to much of a problem with it. There is a new one at national and james river and the intersection of chestnut and 65 is suposed to get one also. The design came from some europen country and the odd thing is i read they are slowly starting to take theres out? Wonder if there is some unseen problem?

I was at the park last weekend and saw the lady in the tub sign but dont remember where i saw it.

Don't toy with me! Pictures, or it didn't happen.  ;)

I go almost every weekend so i will try to hunt it down and get some pics for you.
