Thunderhawk's 100th Anniversary Celebration at Dorney Park 2024!
#rollercoaster #dorneypark #amusementpark
We're back at Dorney Park and this time it's to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of Thunderhawk, the park's classic wooden coaster! It's crazy to think this wooden roller coaster has been around for so long and that it's still running in top form. Sure it doesn't have too many exciting moments for the modern thoosie, and we all wish the brakes before the bunny hills weren't so aggressive, but to see the president of the Philadelphia Toboggan Company brought nearly to tears talking about this coaster really softened my opinions.
Dorney did a great job putting together the day's festivites, from the food, the band, the nano coaster competition and even a live hawk demostration! Props to them and thanks for letting me tag along!

    Never understood why Dorney never placed a camera there for Thunderhawk and a purchasable photo!? So many families had this ride as their children's first "Big coaster" and have no photos. Even to this day.

    the park is so messy right now, definetly bit off more than they could chew. Seems like matinence was so so focused on getting the flash and log flume ready, that the other rides were neglected and are still missing a train (medusa, superman, el toro, nitro, green lantern)

    Thanks for all the updates!! I haven't been able to get out to the park yet this year but at least I know I'm not missing too much yet :) I'm sure you'll have another video update now that all the new houses are announced but what do you think of them all coming? and do you think they'll do stranger things justice? :D

    • @thrillsandmagic
      @thrillsandmagic 6 днів тому

      I think it's a lot to take on when last year's first foray into IP houses got mixed reactions. I don't think Universal did stranger things justice and they have way more budget than six flags. I expect light vignettes of the movie.

      ​@@thrillsandmagic I think a lot of people have similar opinions. That's why I had to ask haha. I'm excited that they're getting bigger properties but also so nervous they won't have the ability to execute them the way they should be - especially when 4 out of the 6 announced properties have already had houses created at Halloween Horror Nights which you said is a much higher level they can create at. This should be a very interesting season and I'm nervously excited for it

    So right now here’s how I view everything with great adventure. I’ll go through the positives and negative’s. This might be long. So for the 50th so far they have actually done a lot of improvements so far. I’ll put a list right here: ( Main Street market refresh Carousel repainted Dream street bricks and history Toro/Ka pathway Looney tunes live Super man decals repainted Green lantern decal repainted Classic great adventure sign back Mine train new sign Repainted fortress Safari base camp Skull mountain exterior repainted New lights in skull mountain Roaring rapids new sign Toro double sided lockers Repainted heroes grill and Villains taverns building with new signs Giant wheel repainted Direction signs improved 3 new entertainment shows 50 Topiary’s Six flags bus back) So I have liked everything they have done so far. Yes there’s still a lot to improve to make it on par with the top cedar fair parks. Something I have really liked this year is how they’re using the characters. They don’t just meet by the fountain anymore. You can see them on dream street or in looney tunes live. They have them all dressed up in the 50th outfits and it’s really cute. Also was nice seeing Flash being a walk around character by justice league! It’s been years since we have seen DC characters in the park and apparently there’s job listenings for Batman and Wonder Woman too. So they did great there. As for the entertainment I do have some complaints. The main reason is capacity. All of these shows take place on the pathways with not enough places to sit so most people are just going to walk on by. They should be in the big arenas especially showcase theater since there’s AC. Also I would’ve liked some more unique shows but corporate probably said no to that. What they have is fine but I would’ve liked to see better. As for the projects that are on going still well you can blame that on corporate since last year they were still deciding how they wanted to do things. We all know flash is a last minute addition but I’m guessing everything else they’re working on was also impacted. Let’s just hope they open soon. As for coasters running trains they’re in a good spot now. Took them longer then usual but I think they’re good now. Medusa and Superman are still on one train unfortunately but everything else is on two trains from my understanding. Lastly that Mr six video six flags just made was incredible. They actually recorded that here. I guess that means mr six is back for six flags and maybe will see him back at the park this season? I mean the bus is there after all. But yeah so far I think this has been a good 50th. Yeah stuff still under construction is annoying but I still like everything the park has done. Sorry if I made this too long lol.
