The Comet roller coaster with Paul Bunyon in the foreground. Bulit in 1948 it was auctioned off and sold to an amusement park in New York State for $210,000
Your right, thats where the Comet is now. Seems like every park has a Paul Bunyon. This one though has been at Crystal Beach for 60 years. No idea where it is now.
I remember riding this coaster and thinking that we would wind up in Lake Erie after the first drop as there was a WICKED turn in the track that jutted out into the lake....sad to see it's all gone now...
I rode the Comet (at the Great Escape) about 5 times a couple of weekends ago. Sort of cool seeing pictures of it being disassembled from it's original location.
Does every park seem to have one of these giant "muffler men"? Paul Bunyan especially.
