    Wasn't expecting that either but I'll take it lol. By the sounds of the press release, I'm thinking it's going in Trabant's spot which is good because that is a real eyesore.

    Vast improvement over the last few years but it does still leave GE at 15 years without a new adult coaster.

    I like the addition. It will be in trabants spot, which is awesome. TGE filling in another hole where a ride used to be. I just wish they would throw something in ghost town.

    All in all it's not the 400 foot coaster we want but it is a really great addition and I'm very pleased by it.

    They've done a great job adding fun flats and when it's time to finally get the next coaster (if that ever happens LOL), at least we will have a pretty well rounded park. And like Phillie26 said, Trabant's spot just looked so bad.

    I had a feeling they would use Trabant's spot eventually because they went around and numbered every ride and building in the park with a small black and white plaque, and they numbered Trabant's area too, so I figured if they weren't going to use it again some day they wouldn't have numbered it :)

    It doesn't need to be a monster coaster, but this park is so overdue!! Some little oceanside parks have added multiple coasters in the years that GE has added none. Building flats is good but coasters are the bread and butter of amusement parks and the time has come - 2019 for sure!!! LOL

    I've been saying next year since 2011. Don't hold your breath. I remember the very credible rumor that bobsled was done after 2012. And I also remember a very credible rumor that we were getting a Superman Ultimate flight clone circa 2014 but nothing had happened yet. I'm sure LC thru a wrench into that plan.

    I'm reading thru the comments on the facebook page, and it seems very positive reaction. A few mentioning how happy they were and how they've missed trabant ever since it left.

    Either one of the Premier launchers or a 4D coaster would look great where Steamin' Demon is.

    Despite not being the overdue coaster, I'm glad this park isn't flagged and getting all the clones and stuff. It reminds of Lake Compounce and Canobie Lake Park, which is a good thing!

    They take massive pride in their story town past, and they seem to be restoring it piece by piece.

    This new ride looks like it fills the gap the Trabant left and it seems like an innovative, unique contraption that looks a lot of fun!
