This ride was the best, the dated sci-fi/horror aesthetic in the line was so much fun, and then the ride itself was pretty cool too. The air conditioning was also a huge reason I enjoyed it
Not gonna lie, I loved this ride as a kid. It was air conditioned and never had a line. When I needed to cool off we rode this about 7 times and then went back out to finish our day with the bigger rides. Plus the fried cheese stand was right by the building.
I know I am in the minority, but I loved this ride when I rode it a couple times in May 2001. I was 28 at the time and travelled to CP from Australia with my BFF. It felt faster than any other bobsled cause of the dark indoor setting. Plus it was a relief as it was a hot end of spring day. I think actually it may have been early June, but I do know we landed in the USA on May 11th and started in California and it was an epic road trip, all the way to Florida then all the way up the East coast then once we did SFGA we started going west, doing all the parks in PA that were just opening their seasons and we ended at CP and Six Flags Geauga Lake. Very memorable trip, especially cause we got almost 30 back to back rides on Apollo's Chariot in the very back row on a quiet day at BGW. But yeah I was sad to see Disaster Transport go as I like indoor coasters and it was the only indoor bobsled I think? Next year I finally get back to Cedar Point, but I've been to CA and Florida many times since then, I just never made it back to PA or Ohio. Looking forward to it!
This video randomly popped up.. I can tell you, as a former night shift security officer at CP from 2002-2005, the ride building was used as a haunted house, which was decorated year round and storage. The original drag racer tires from TTD were stored in disaster transport. I've been through every room, climbed every ladder, and even walked the track itself when the park was closed. As much of a conspiracy theorist that I am, there were no secret society rituals there.. or even any room for it! 😂

Miss it more every year it's gone :(

Omfg the fried cheese dude, two kinds of cheese cooked like a corn dog only twice as thick as a corn dog, oh my GOD dude it's SO GOOD!
I'd pay 10 bux for it, with a SMILE.
That was my favorite ride
I was there for the last ride. Something I’ll never forget
Cool

How was it?
@@twi5tyfruitcake i am in the us right now on a coaster trip
Awesome video - thanks for all the work you put into this!
Thank you - more of these very soon!
the AC was a nice respite from the hot weather. also it only had a 42 inch ride height so younger kids could ride it
Amazing video bro ! U didn’t get enough credit for this . Amazing
Thank you! Slowly it is reaching more and more - the truth may one day be revealed :)
Would be super awesome if they paid homage to this ride on a future attraction by building a new modern indoor coaster and using the name.
I hope you are listening CP!
This was my favorite ride. Actually came all they way down from Michigan today for it, only to find out it was dismantled 11years ago.
Right
I remember this when it first came out, after they changed it from the avalance run. i liked the avalance run better.
Wish we could have rode the original version!
1994 this was my first roll coaster, at the tender age of 8..
that is a legendary first credit
They should bring it back as an indoor RMC Raptor.
Amazing idea!
I second this. We need more sci fi attractions at CP
Why tf is this video creepy as hell during the middle of the night.

We miss this ride!
They always get rid of good old rides, rather than repair. All they care about is thrill seekers
CP desperately needs another dark ride.
