Two 4D coasters coming to two northeastern parks?

Because of B: TDK, SFNE isn't on that list otherwise they would be on it. That's the only explanation I have for SFNE because you can't get more northeastern than SFNE.

TOP 5
1. Alpengeist, 2. Magnum XL-200, 3. Superman: Ride of Steel (SFNE), 4. Volcano: The Blast Coaster, 5. Apollo's Chariot
Close Calls 1. Grizzly (PKD), 2. Batwing, 3. Montu

Chris Godsey,

Does it still hold true that Arrow hasn't sold another 4D?

Any new developments?

A CCI 200ft out and back would rock

If Arrow is building 2 4D's next year Sfgadv is getting one. Its there 30th year next year and they are the flag ship.
Whoever made this rumor up has really embarassed himself or herself because there is absolutely no chance that two 4D coasters would go to two Six Flags northeastern parks. Six Flags is not that idiotic to put two of these expensive Arrow coasters in the same region. I think people would actually buy the rumor if the rumor stated that one 4D would go to a northeastern park and the other 4D would go to a midwest park. That's just my opinion...

Don't fool yourselves!! The 4D coasters are going to the parks that have been neglected in the past.. You see, six flags felt bad, and is now sending a whole bunch of cast to the parks..

PLaces like AstroWorld, Elitch Gardens, and Kentuky Kingdom. THAT'S where you'll be findin 4ds...

-----------------
Texas Coasters... wow I'm lucky... IM me if you feel like talking about coasters.

We cant be for sure sfne won't get one. Sfne is one ot the smallest sixflags parks. Well just have to see in 2003, now won't we.But I would love for sfne to get one beacause i live in RI and thats only 1 hour away from Agawam.

If we are following the train of thought which says a park would not need to build a flyer and a 4-D, then that would immediately take SFA out of the running(Batwing)

If any 4D's are going to the northeast for next year, GRadv would be a safe bet. I am not gonna start the whole "flagship debate", but GRadv is definately one of the major parks in the chain, and they would be due for a coaster in 2003. If you look at the magnitude of the last 3 coasters(Chiller, Medusa, Nitro) something big is coming once again.

I'd say SFNJ or SFNE,with the possibilty of SFDL
I realize it's not on "the list" but La Ronde will be getting something next year .. why not a 4D?
Why would SFNE get another new coaster after already just getting B:DK? It's possible, but highly unlikely.

A Vekoma SLC would do Nebraska wonders! :-)

yea SFWOA has been planning a new ride for awhile i believe. one of these would be just perfect

Their still redesigning that hyper to suit the surrounders, trying to build that new hotel, planning more water slide, a 4D is nowhere in the picture.

The reason for listing SFNE is simple,they got a B&M this year which shows IMO a bit of favortism on SF's part and based on that they should make enough revenue in increased attendance to warrant a 4-D installation.SFA might,just might be a candidate as well,just because they've got a flying coaster doesn't rule out the possibility of a 4-D,after all they've got two inverted coasters,Two face & Mind eraser.

I havent heard anything new from Arrow. I would assume that Since Gary Story said he wanted to wait to see how X ran we won't see any 4ds next season. It seems that most parks interested in it (including CP) want to see how the prototype runs before making a firm decision on it. As soon as I hear anything, I will let you know.

-----------------
WCUSA-The World's largest theme park is coming!
Theme parks will NEVER be the same!

if any park in the NorthEast will be recieving a 4D for the '03 Season its going to be the Great Escape. Once again the park has put a new coaster on hold, while they get the park ready what is said to be Great Escape's BIGGEST expansion ever...they have the land, they want to add more coasters and other rides to increase attendance, so id say if any NE park will get a 4D its going to be Great Escape.

I agree w/ Great Escape... transforming into a SF branded park as well...... I would HIGHLY expect one here... similar to what SFDL did in 1999 adding S:ROS....
I think that La Ronde will be getting the 4D before Great Escape. They are investing quite a bit of money and do claim it will be a flagship park ( http://www.rcdb.com/document62.htm ) and due to its proximity to Great Escape I can't see them investing large amounts of money in both parks. Of course I'm incredibly biased .. but what are ya gonna do?
La Ronde is supposed to get a Superman B&M next, probably floorless, but a Superman 4D would be even better. I'll I know is that there next coaster is indeed a Superman something...

I was guessing a B&M floorless as well but a Superman 4D would be great. They'd have to switch to the official Six Flags name though for the Superman theme, 4D or floorless. I don't know if they'd be willing/able to do it for 2003. Perhaps they'll just call it something else until then just like Vampire (Batman).


For those who think SFWoA will be the next recipient, I don't think so. The proposed hyper is rumored to be from Intamin.

X Factor



It was not "rumored" to be from Intamin...it was confirmed. Just to avoid further confusion.
