okay like... when i was like 5 or 6 or something, i remember this wagon themed ride in southwestern territory... it was like a rainbow type thing.... what was this?
Trailblazer. It was removed a few years ago.
Gravity Group fan
Trailblazer was removed from SOuthwest Territory due to many problems with other rides of this type.
oh, okay. thank you very much :}
this has been bugging me for a while:P
In the future, use the Questions/Ideas thread for these type of questions. It is several threads below this one.

The Problems, Questions and Suggestions forum is specifically for site issues NOT park related concerns. 
The Official Questions/Ideas TOPIC is PACKED with questions directly related to the park.

Onyx means my thread, it's now above here.
maybe galvan just misunderstood that I was referring to a TOPIC and not a FORUM...it's ok no biggie

Just to finish this off with a few more random facts...The base to Trailblazer is still there from what I recall. Actually they still have the ride in good condition somewhere. They could very easily put it back up if they ever wanted to. Which I kinda wonder if they might.
^ TrailBlazer will never come back. A design flaw was found, which although it could be fixed, it would be far too expensive
I know it's costly, but couldn't this have been good in a season like this? Any free ride for a company in trouble is perfect! What is the flaw anyways?
Batcave (a member of our forums) was the last one to ride it and broke it/ruined it for everyone. It will never operate again.
how?
Wait, what did I do!?
You broke Trailblazer.... I remember because I responded to it... Plus I was one of the last people to do the morning inspection on it... I had to climb up there since the other maintenance guy couldn't....
It was always fun to play a game of "What wildlife will attempt to kill me today?" The design flaw that caused the closure was a single point of failure in the power transmission between the gearbox and the wagon itself. It was in a location that could not be easily inspected, and if it failed would lead to the wagon smashing into the ground... Licensed Mechanical Engineer
which would look similar to...
 Also serves Zamperla right for copying the Huss Rainbow so closely. Favorite Wood Coasters: The Voyage, Ravine Flyer II, Thunderhead, Balder
Favorite Steel: Voltron Nevera, Steel Vengeance, Expedition GeForce, Olympia Looping Parks visited: 232, Coasters Ridden: Steel: 894, Wood: 179, Total: 1073
Wow, that looks really dangerous.
Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.
Coaster Count: 167 (41 Wood, 125 Steel) @Coaster_Cole on Twitter
Yeah, it is dangerous.
They don't use that area for anything now do they? I think a Fright Fest maze goes back there somewhere but I don't really know. I'm hoping they put in a shooting dark ride where Trailblazer was.
13 - GateKeeper
14 - Millennium Force 15 - Enchanted Tales with Belle
Why did I get blamed? I just took the call...The only ride I have ever actually broke was ROTM:TR.
There is clearly some dramatic backstory that I am not aware of. Care to explain? And what is ROTM:TR?
13 - GateKeeper
14 - Millennium Force 15 - Enchanted Tales with Belle
Revenge of the Mummy: The Ride
And DejaVu as evidenced by the side of the cafeteria
That wasnt me either
