Even tho I don't live anywhere near there, I keep reading about people ranting about how they really need a new coaster, and somehow that enrages me that any park could be "ignored" even if I don't live near there. In fact, I might be willing to disassemble Banshee and carry each piece over there by hand, and once every piece has arrived, reassemble it there. That is, if the track pieces and steel beams wouldn't crush me and if I was strong enough to pick them up, and if I was willing to walk that far. Even tho I like Banshee, Kings Island still has a lot of other great coasters.

How about we move Renegade to Great America, since that's one of the very few things I actually miss about Minnesota

Especpially Florida with 20 coasters per year lol

West Coast "seaside" parks IMO. Traditional coasters are there, though.

... canobie lake NEEDS a new coaster almost desperatly. it's been WAY too long without one. lol, they can put it in the picnic area and have the entrance over by the crappy psycho drome...(what is a drome?)

Definition of Drome - large specially prepared place.
For example an Air Plan hanger might be called an aerodrome

Anyways not long after your post they added a coaster finally after 30 years and the removal of that coaster(Galaxy). close on the location it was added in the ball field not toe picnic grounds.

There is a FAT CHANCE, That canobie lake will be getting a new coaster in the near future. the built StarBlaster, a S&S Tower, that doesn't go much higher than the trees. Salem NH, has noise ristrictions, but not hight. i am friends with the owner and i have put the bug in his ear every year about the new latest and gratest coaster, that he would have room to build in his park. At 1 point i thought an giant inverted boomarang would be awesome. it is nothing to jump around about, but tell me where there is 1 any wehre near the east coast!

anyway FAT CHANCE canobie lake will get any type of coaster other than a kiddie better than the dumb Dragon!

Boy did Canobie prove you wrong on all counts. They not only added a coaster but added a thrill coaster not a kiddie coaster. A Eurofighter 360. It's under 80ft and includes 3 inversions. The supports are filled with Sand to cu down on the noise.


My List

1. Canobie Lake Park - It's been 6 years since they added untamed. There is a bigger demand on the park and they need high capacity additions that will not only appease guest but take more pressure of Yankee cannonball. untamed was a good start but they could use at least one or 2 more coasters.
2. Funtown Splashtown USA (Saco ME) - The parks last coaster, A Wild mouse, replaced their Galaxy. Not exactly an upgrade. They haven't actually added a new coaster that upped their count since Excalibur in 98. A new coaster would really give the park a boost and it doesn't need to be a big one anything outside of a kiddie coaster woudl be a plus.
3. Santa's Village - I know they have less money then other area parks but Story land Just added Roar-o-saurous. A second coaster woudl help them compete. Just so happens that a park right down the street has their large Miller kiddie coaster up for sale. not a major coaster but an easy addition they could move it themselves.
4. The Great Escape - Their last coaster was a kiddie Zamperla coaster before that was a hacked up used mine train. i understand they are trying to keep the parks attendance levels at a reasonable level to avoid high coast improvements to local roads but they are in great need of a complimenting star coaster.

Totally agree with Canobie lol. Apparently there are markers around corkscrew and some say "track for station"

From what i have been hearing is they are looking to add but current plans are delayed or canceled for reconsideration. whatever they add needs to be really thought out. no room to pick the wrong attraction. Untamed is a lot of fun but it doesn't have the pull of Cannonball. Only sad part of this is if Corkscrew comes out their count stays the same. at least a new coaster will lave better capacity and hopefully hold more people in line.

Drayton Manor could really do with a major new coaster!

Valleyfair

I agree Valleyfair Could use a new coaster. especially given that they have not seen a coaster since 2011 and that was a used kiddie coaster. their last big coaster was in 07.

but one has to wonder if they did get a new coaster given they have 8 already weather or not it would be an addition or replacement for an older coaster like say Corkscrew.

Considering Valleyfair and Worlds of Fun are the same size, they often go hand in hand when this kind of question comes up. Though, i must say that WOF hasnt had a new coaster since 2009. Even the GP complain about the lack of new rides

[Paradox]

Lake Compounce is finally getting a coaster after 16 years lol.

^crikey, that was a big risk, going without a new ride for that long!

Dorney desperately needs a big new attraction
