Arlington, Texas recent comments:

  • Runaway Mine Train, KCForce (guest) wrote 16 years ago:
    Actually, it was not the first steel tracked coaster in the world. There were steel I-beam coasters that opened in the 1950's in Japan, and the first tubular steel coaster was in 1959, the Matterhorn at Disneyland, in Anaheim, CA.
  • Shockwave, KCForce (guest) wrote 16 years ago:
    Actually, it is the SECOND roller coaster with back to back consecutive vertical loops. The Double Loop at Geuaga Lake near Cleveland, OH opened in 1977, one year before the Shockwave.

    the texas chute out sucks to operate, especially on thoes packed days, people complain about how slow we work. and they dont take into count that we are only human and that 110 degree weather is hitting us as well as them and that the 7.25 an hr wont make us feel any better!!!!

    It would be good to have a map with street names so I could find how to get there. It would help to have a phone number too.

    This ride is known as the YO-YO to employees. That is what is on the manufacturers plate.
  • La Vibora, oldmancoyote wrote 16 years ago:
    This was originally the Bobsled ride. I guess they realised it didn't make sense to call it that since it is inthe "Mexico" section of the park.

    This is still an awesome ride. In the last rise you come up in the middle of the lake.
