Small News From The Theme Park Industry

Station, control and (maybe?) trains I can understand, but track and structure too? Any word on what that actually means? Just a new lick of paint, or something more?
 
Possible major changes for a coaster 5 years old is worrying. Anything to do with stresses on the track due to the speed it takes elements at (not an engineer)? Or maybe to update it to the new shaping seen on stunt pilot?
 
Couldn't find this anywhere on the forums. Maybe it's been overlooked due to Jetline's derailing?
A guest and staffer received minor head injuries and were transported to a hospital following an incident involving the Looping Star roller coaster at Clacton Pier. The ride was shut down while a full inquiry is underway to determine the cause of the incident.

They actually do much to this pile of popsicle sticks to warrant the name change? One of the wobbliest coaster structures I’ve ever seen and just a constant shuffle I had to ride extremely defensively.

I honestly look forward to the day Elitch shuts down and they build condos or something else there. Denver should have a park somewhere out east of the city, maybe not too far from the airport where there’s plenty of open land, and have some proper roller coasters instead of a park where the best one is an SLC (and not even one of the better SLCs)

You try dealing with the city of Denver. This is the best they could do with what they have. Elitch moving a larger area of land would be for the best though.
 
Reports that on June 9th there was an injury on Electric Eel at SWSD. Not much info yet but could be the reason the seas SRII’s have been down recently.

Edit: Moved as doesn't warrant it's own thread.

I’m thinking like completely new ownership, but I don’t want to get too far into fantasyland lol. It’s just a shame because Colorado has such nice weather, is one of the fastest growing states, and has decent tourism already for the mountains and such, a real amusement park seems like it should do well, but Elitch is literally among the worst out there.
 
It could be worse. The one time I visited this park the only coaster they got open all day was the half pipe.

I got a free ticket to come back because of the issues but my flight was that evening and can't see myself ever going back. Money not well spent.
 
Minor but does it annoy anyone else that they've used basically the same stock clipart twice as if we forgot what it looked like two feet above?
 
Movie Park Germany will be joining Walibi Belgium and Bellewaerde in debuting their first ever Christmas event this year.
