Thanks to Chance, I ran the very first TRABANT, serial 0001, in 1965, I was foreman for 3 years, on the Belle City show, and 30 years later Pete Sutton, I was in his office and he had a picture of a TRABANT in a frame on his wall.. And in talking with him about it I found out he owned number 0002. That bought back memories.
Those blue pieces of track is a coaster named Lightning Run at my home park Kentucky Kingdom in Louisville Kentucky. We are the only one with that kind of coaster in the world.
Yeah. I wish there were more Hyper GT-X coasters around. Lightning Run looks like a LOAD of fun! It was rumored Michigan's Adventure would be getting one in 2016 to celebrate it's 50th anniversary but instead they got a petting zoo. Great. The last new ride they got was in 2013 and that was a family swing ride and their last new coaster was in 2008 and it was a used Vekoma SLC.
They had a lot of great rides thru the years the skywheel astro wheel skydiver zipper rok n roll flying bobs giant wheel yo yo zumur cp huntingdon train ride and their beautiful carrousels as well.
