    The moving the train back and forth on Colossus is not to warm up the grease. Its to warm up special "Soft" wheels. The trains contain 96 wheels per train and have a mix of hard and soft wheels. The soft wheels are hard on the outside but have a silicon like substance in the middle that needs to be warmed up or the train won't make it around the course. These wheels were added to always keep Colossus running at the precise speed. Which is about 38 seconds from the top of the lift to the brake run. It will vary when the train gets really warm moving to 35 to 36 seconds and if its raining to 32 seconds. If it goes over 32 seconds the ride is closed but having operated and supervised over this ride for many years I have never seen it over speed and even in a down pour. Its a cool system Lagoon has come up with for Colossus. Sometimes in the cold Fall Weekends it can take up to two hours to warm up a train.

      The park is huge. Surprisingly so. With all the shops and unique areas... large number of kid rides, family rides, thrill coasters and even mild coasters. A water park. Animals. And they've been adding new rides every couple of years with a bug one opening next year. And it's OLD. Opened in 1886, so the trees and everything are very grown in making the midway shady and really pretty. Lots of food options from fast food to carnival food to sit down. It is an extremely good park for a great price and not super well known.

    This is my home park and boy is it incredible! I've been going for years. I love how it has a carnival like section with the rock o plane, pirate ship swing ride, wild mouse, etc. And pioneer village is a place like no other! Cannibals is insane and it blows me away every time, the sheer amount of power that is has is ridiculous. And Primordial is looking up to be a very well themed dark ride, I can't wait for it to open and to get the chance to ride it.

    Too many small coasters here. Admission is expensive. I don't get all that themeing for a mediocre ride like the Spider. A small spinning coaster. The park is lacking another big coaster. Wicked is ok... The launch, drop and inline twist is good but after that, nothing special. It's basically a much smaller version of Cannibal.

    • @Cooe.
      @Cooe. 3 года назад +6

      Jet Star II is RIDICULOUSLY intense for a "small coaster", and crazy fun. Colossus (the other Schwarzkopf) is also kickass, and not exactly "small" (short? Yes. Small? Rofl, hell no). And Roller Coaster is one of the most historically significant coasters west of the Mississippi. And nobody ever pays list price... Tickets are $50 at all local Costcos. Don't blame the park that you didn't do even the barest minimum of research before you went. -_-
      Also Spider is great. Arguably the best riding spinning coaster of its type. All the other models of that exact same ride are SIGNIFICANTLY worse.

Too many people, over priced, and in my opinion lame. Lagoon has character, isn't trying to be anyone else, and has some real thrilling rides. Unfortunately they have upped their prices, which I personally think is ridiculous, but I get a discount through my college, so I am not too upset.
