I just now noticed that the last tunnel was missing from the ride. Quite interesting.
This picture also shows Yankee Harbor when it was Yankee Harbor. The Whirligig ride was sitting near the New England Cafe. I really miss the way it looked prior to the V2 age.
R.I.P. Splashwater Falls and Space Shuttle America. Deja Vu, enjoy Idaho.
Hear ye, hear ye: "After 45 years, Six Flags has stopped smoking."
Yea and also for B:TR, wasn't the station modified? I think that was like the police station or something and now it's the batcave. I could be wrong. I was born in '92

East River Crawler is still the old colors too.

The station was always the Public Works bldg. that housed the batcave.

Yeah the Cajun Cliffhanger was very cool....way better than any gravitron.
You just had to be a little smart about it. Any moron with even the slightest bit of common sense who rode that ride should have known not to point your toes down when the floor came up, but thanks to the request of one colossal dumb***(and also an equally dumb ride op), nobody will ever ride that beautiful and unique(and not to mention historical) ride again.
Ahh the rain drop, the perfect aerodynamic shape. It is actually formed by the air around it.
^Agreed. I don't normally like those gravitron style rides, but Cajun Cliffhanger was the exception. I always made it a mission to ride it while it was there.
Anyway, I think the Batman looks amazing with yellow paint and the roof over the brake run, however, after looking at that picture, I think that the ride looks horrible in black BECAUSE of the brake run covers. The black looks clean and cool with just the station, but the roofs over the brake run made the ride look junky. Just my opinion, though.
RIP: Trailblazer and Deja Vu...heck, even Alien Encounter
