Well now that's an easy one for me. I'd like to un-rivet one of those MF train name plates that says, "Intamin Giga Roller Coaster". TOO SWEET!

Millennium Force - Any other questions?

What exactly do you mean by a "Déjà Vu maintenance sign", and why would you try to steal it? That's just downright ignorant. And what do you mean you "almost got away with it"?

In response to the thread, what I'd love to have is a very easy choice to make. I'd love nothing more than a cabin from Sky Whirl. Ahh... That would make me so happy.

I was lucky enough to obtain a piece of memorabilia I never thought possible to obtain. For me, nothing can top this.

well, they left it by a bus stop and valleyfair got called about it and the park services supervisor had to go get it.....the cops didn't like it sitting next to the bus stop..might actually get some use...

I'd really like to have an oringal train from The Beast. Maybe something from The Bat and a KC car aswell.

My wish list would include...

A seat from Raging Bull and/or Alpengeist
A Kings Island Bat car

As far as something that I could personally install and operate myself....

A Schwarzkopf Wildcat and/or Bayern Kurve

Ad in newspaper a year or so go, Fiberglass steel phantom cars, $400. I do believe that was the price. But still very cool.

Just did a major update on my site, http://www.geocities.com/coaster_m_and_m_18/index.html
*Can't we all just be nice?*

Long ago, before Vortex emptied the Beast's carp infested pond, and the Beast q-line regularly circulated through 4 big mazes, there was an awesome narrative, written on a stand alone storyboard, written as if by a man who'd barely survived the expedition, the horrifying story of an abandoned mine deep in the woods, and worse yet, occupied by a frightening creature.... and you were line for the expedition...

I think I would empty my bank account to purchase that old sign...

-----------------
Talk to the claw...

if my memory serves me correct... around the time of the opening of Shock Wave.. there was an article in one of the ACE magazines about a lady who was awarded a PKI Beast train (just the front cart w/ 3 rows). I've always wanted something like that.. it wouldnt matter what roller coaster exactly.. just one where i could place that in front of my tv and use the train as my new couch.

Okay, now that Shock Wave is going for sure, I want that big sign out in front of the que. I personally think it's one of the best coaster logo's ever created, and the 3-d incarnation is impressive.

The PTC train from the defunct park in PA (Willow Grove perhaps?). Saw the sucker on e-bay a while back, Jill didn't think it was a good "investment", lol. Hope whoever got it loves it the way I would have....

A simple nut, bolt, or piece of scrap metal from Drachen Fire would have been spectacular.

But alas...

Definetly a Cedar Point garbage can. I see no reason why I would have trouble getting ahold of one.

I always wondered if Dick Kinzel would give me one if I asked. CP should have no problem making the money that they need to buy a new one. And that's if they gave me a new one and not one that they are already throwing away.

As for me (other than a CP garbage can) I would like to have a piece of the Swithback Railway in Coney Island. And most of all I want a piece of the Crystal Beach Cyclone. And for the heck of it I'd like it to be signed by Harry Traver.

It was ignorant meaning I didn't know any better. I saw it lying on the ground('it' being one of the signs they put up when the ride vallies or has maintenence problems) So I tried to carry it off ;The heat of the moment;impulsive thinking. I got stopped after 4 feet by a blue shirted women with a clipboard named alice. She took the sign from me and I told her that I found it on the ground near the enterance she gave me a short five minute lecture and sent me on my way.

Please don't make fun of me but....I would have to say I would want to have a baked potato stand from a theme park. I am a chef and I specialize in making baked potatoes with ALL of the fixins. You know with the bacon bits, the chives, the works! I would just love to have my own stand to take around to fairs with my man. We would sell them like crazy. As long as they don't make me put my stand up next to some damn ride that has a line that blocks my potato stand like the damn restaurant next door to me in the mall does. So yeah I would like a potato stand. Keep your eyes out on Ebay for me will ya?
