I know most of you remember the ragging bull or whatever it was called. Was the ride stored away or scrapped? I thought that ride was fun and even though it was not big or special like todays rides, it still was enjoyable. But anyways, just wanted to know where the ride might be if it's still around.

Whirling Dervish (the wave swinger) was relocated to Great America.

What he is referring to is the Wild Bull, which was where Top Gun's helix is now. It was a Scwharzkopf (I think) bayern curve.



That is the Kennywood Bayern Curve. The one at Carowinds did not have a facade behind it. I had heard that it was in storage, but if it is I still would not expect to ever see it again. I imagine parts are hard to come by for these, as the other Paramount parks that had them removed theirs, and Kennywood is the only remaining one that I can think of off the top of my head.

EDIT: Dave informs me that the Kennywood Bayern Curve has been removed, so I don't know of anyone who has one now.

Thanks guys for the answers. I wish it would come back, but it makes sense to take it away if parts are very rare (and probably expensive). I do agree that the country fair section needs more flats to make it more like a "fair" without the skankiness involved!
