Do you know how many and which rides are featured on the Cedar Point ride gravestones?
“Over the years, [Cedar Point’s] rides have increased. As a result, some are deceased.
These rides may be gone, but they’re not forgotten. Though their motors have stopped and their wood has turned rotten.
So pause for a moment; stop making merry; All we’ve got is their tombstones, they’re too big to bury.”

The ride that I would love to see resurrected would be the paddle wheel excursions. I feel like the current corporation that owns Cedar Point really only want to concern themselves with high thrill rides. The paddleboat ride was a nice alternative for older people and those with heart or other medical limitations. Get rid of Dinosaurs Alive.
i was told some of the meanstreak ‘s wood is in
the steal vengeance.
It is true, RMC transformed the old mean streak into Steel Vengance. It is still a very crazy ride.
