Clapped out

Have you ever been on a ride and thought:

That really needs a bit of work on it?

Well if not get lost

Ok well the ride I found most needed a bit of work on it was Cyclone at Pleasure Land Southport. It looks like its had no paint since it was built!!!



This picture is old too, imagine it 7 years later!

lol, that thing is a piece of junk The lift hill is bent entirely out of shape, how the chain still works is beyond me. Grand National and Big Dipper also could do with some sanding down and a fresh coat of paint added

The cyclone at southport has been going for so long and Southport cant find the time and the money to re-paint with all the 'Grand Exstension' going on. That coaster is what i grew up on until i was ready for the big rides. Edge is right, going up the lift hill is actually quite scary as its all bent lol.

You can see little kinks in it if u look closely.

IMO this coaster is a classic even tho the 1st drop is nearly virtually the same size out of the station on Hades lol ( sounds very small when you put it like that)[:D][}:)][xx(][}:)][:D]

I agree and yes the lift is bent, however before the fire on the Grand National the lift was hell bent!
Also since you mentioned Big Dipper and National I thought you would say summet about the wild mouse and roller coaster!

Good Point. If it was up 2 me they should take that mad mouse thing down. Someone has and will get seriously get hurt on that if somethigs not done. It adds to the fun i suppose. I was wondering what there gonna put in the extension at southport. How bout a Rocket Coaster. YEAH!!!!!!!!

I know what you mean about that @$?????????"^&(()__)_)+ Wild Mouse coaster!

My dad cracked his rib on it and I twisted in my foot!

Also what you said about the rocket coaster

I highly doubt Southport will recieve a Rocket Coaster as they roll on a tight budget. I suppose they could borrow abit of money off their sister park (BPB)

well, sierre tonante is also a ride that really needs some work. Same structure as you showed on the first pic. Only higher. If they are going to rebuild the ride, At least make those hills lower, except the lift hill. The ride needs air!

I suppose I'll let rides on the coast of a bit as the sea air won't help the paint!
