you wouldn't have to tear down the existing station. Just remove the roof and install a new one. supports can be covered with something more to theme. |

Ya, good idea, but I don't think we strayed to much and it's a good point. something we did here that SFI really hasn't was talk about adding or changing an area but also how to enhance it. Wiggles world/Kidsopolis will never grow to be a nostalgic area. The far side of the park were boomerang has never been given it's own look. there is more to adding then simply throwing in a ride. |

That's part of the problem 3 rides and 3 themed. 2 buildings with no theme. I suggested a 50's theme at one point. Rainbow was still there. They should pick one theme perhaps Sasquatch since it's the newest theme give it all a Forest/Adirondack theme. Plant more trees reface the 2 buildings. |

The boomerange you wouldnt even have to repaint it all they would have to do is rename it and they could easily retheme the car ride |

same here but there really is nothing I can think of. it was just the ride on the hill side. I can't remember if there was a tunnel. If there was that woudl need to be rebuilt. |

The train has a "cave" tunnel, but Thinder Alley has a section where a track section goes under another track section and has a small concrecte passthrough... I would consider it a tunnel but it could deffinitely be an issue. |

Maybe I should have said Bridge not Tunnel. or Bridge/tunnel section. In this case the ride has one so this woudl need to be rebuilt to fit the new cars. I would have to check my paperwork to see if the turns need a lot more space. |
