Cheesehead Dave, I hadn't thought of the time repositioning the arms from one position to the next, so I see your point.

I was looking at CWSR's album of Shock Wave Construction photos taken in the winter, and I could see that the cabin of the Sky Trek Tower was at the top of the tower. Why was it kept there in the winter? It seems that keeping it at ground level would be more logical.

I haven't been to Gurnee since 1992. Do the cars spin on either the Dark Knight or Ragin' Cajun? Re: the Theater Royale, I have some very pleasant memories of the Bugs Bunny shows from the 1970's and 1980.

I'm particularly interested in hearing from people who have attended both parks in recent years. I'll s...

Crypt Cruiser, those are great images. Good job.
