Most Entertaining Stations

My two favorite non Universal/ Disney stations of all time are MF and TTD. I really loved MF's station, but it might have had to do with the fact that I had been waiting 3 years to ride it. Also I loved TTD's station with Baby I'm Ready to Go playing and seeing the trains go through while waiting in the line was also great, especially after waiting through all the breakdowns. My favorite line was Hypersonic XLC because the look on the people's faces when launching is priceless.

Top 3: 1. Top Thrill Dragster 2. Millennium Force 3. Magnum XL200

Raging Wolf Bobs 2002. The two guys working the station were more entertaining than the ride, much more.
Yes, TTD's Music rocks. It's just all so different, yet all ties in so well.
TTD Was good and i like Batman Knight Flight as well..when your standing over the water and you see the fish and turtles...and the coaster surrounds the whole thing!
Cannon Ball at Lake Winne is just the coolest station to me... It has such an old timey charm and the wood is all warped and uneven. It's a very neat atmosphere... AND the ops actually smile... now THATS amazing.

Just in case anyone was wondering, the music in the Riddlers Revenge station is by Sash! and the song is called "Ecuador" from the "It's My Life" album.

Good song, if you're not stuck listening to it for an hour.

Edit: Sorry decoy, didn't notice you had already posted the info.

I like MF, the first time I rode that I was already scared when i got in the station but once i saw the lights and the lady talking and the techno music I just felt like screaming there (I was only 10). Also I like Top Thrill Dragsters station at night (especially the sign "at times this ride does not make it over" people talkin about that sign talkin like they know what happens they say "oh thats what that little circle at the front of the coaster is for so when it comes back thats what it hits"(not knowing that the brakes come up after the launch) that is just funny to me).

I also say that Twister at Knobels is great. So well made and perfect location. I even like the long exit ramp, it almost makes sure you are still there when the train goes through the helix. For similar reasons, Lightning Racer at Hershey. So well done.I also like Raven's station, looks like a haunted house. Legend too, for that matter, the Old North Church.

I thought MF's station was pretty darn average, same with X. The techno music just does nothing for me. I'm also (for some reason) unable to measure the level of energy on a platform. Maybe I need to find some sort of machine that can.

SCREAM with me... in 2003!

Wicked Twister. I love the beach, and the chick giving the scoop, and the crazy matrix-lobby-type techno following her shpiel.

-Plus the train/sound swooping by, combined with the view of the impulse spikes AND the view of the dive show, given that it is going on make me happy in my brain.

So good.

I think Excalibur at Funtown has the best station. It is themed to look like a medieval castle.
Grrr what is with all of these parks getting cool, energetic stations with at least some kind of music (prefereably techno). SFOG and Carowinds both have pretty boring stations.
Entertaining or aesthetically pleasing?

Very few entertain me, but there are some I like because they are very well done. Some of the standout stations I have seen are:

1. Tenessee Tornado

2. Wildfire

3. SFGAM Viper

4. Flight of Fear

5. Alpengeist

6. Exterior of Villain

7. Batman: The ride

8. Lightning Racer

9. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

10. Space Mountain

Shaggy

Millie by far! The lights that go up the station and the

what music plays in the X station?

Here's an almost complete- and possibly quite accurate- list (actually, as far as I know that's about it) of X station music:

Crystal Method- She's My Pusher
Crystal Method- Vapor Trail
Crystal Method- Bass Instrumental
DJ Skribble- Phat Bass
Unknown Artist- Confusion

My favorite, by far, is Confusion.

In the Riddler's Revenge station the song is:
Sash- Equador (Bruce Wayne Mix)

Get it? Bruce Wayne? Ahhh... the little things.

As for me, my favorite is Wildfire, but I also like the Batman :TR at SFoG.

ROYALS!!!

Corkscrew at MiA ;)

Seriously, I love MiA's Wolverine Wildcat. No special effects or music, it just looks great. It's always cool in the shade, the view across the lake is fantastic, the trains thunder past the station several times, and the whole wooden atmosphere just somehow fits. Every time I go through I envy the ride ops :)
