Martins fantasy Island's new ride

Grand Island, NY is apparantly getting a sling shot costing over a million dollars, as was reported on Channel 2 news here in Buffalo.

I know this is a little off topic but does Martin's have a park map? I'm sort of curious as to the layout of the park.

I drove by it on the way to Toronto. That woody they got themselves looks pretty cool. Anyone been on it?

I was on the Silver Comet the year it opened up (1999), and I must say that it is a great wooden coaster. It's not the longest, fastest, or most thrilling... but when it's full of some great twists, turns, dips, and especially... smoothness... it makes for a great wooden coaster ride that has plenty of re-ride-ability.

The sad thing is the location... MFI. It's not a bad park, but the owner & staff could use a little more training in customer decency. I have caught the park management reaming out the employees in front of park guests, which is a little embarassing on all 3 parties.

None of the rides have any themeing, and... unless they changed it in 2000... the loading station for Silver Comet will drive you INSANE!!! Why? It's a looped voice-over on the silver comet over & over & over ad nausea (I mean this sucker is played even after the train left!). It wouldn't be so bad if it it was the general loading procedure played once & only once when the train loads up & leaves, but it'll drive you to insanity!!

lol...

..oh, now that I think about it, I remember on my way to Niagra Falls I took a pic of the Silver COmet on the way... if I find it I'll upload it to my site and post it here...
