Close! RCS has a Spinning Coaster, sold the Wilde Maus. (just giving you the business)

I have also heard that Butler's Zillerator (Zyklon) actually belongs to West Coast Amusements/Shows. McDonagh's Amusements has a Zyklon, but is not traveling it right now, maybe in the future (set up in Chesaning, Michigan, and runs for that fair only right now).

Do any of the shows come to Indianapolis Indiana? I have not seen a mobile coaster here ever. Want to though. Thanks

I do not know if Butler's coaster is actually theres or not-I think it is. But they now have another small coaster they just bought off of Davis out here on the West Coast. I will try to get the name of it tonight.

It should be Mark I instead of Mark IV.

See I knew i would miss a few.[:p] Yeah Chris it would be nice of McDonaugh would start moving that Zyklon they got. I'm surprised they dont book that thing out.....no sense of it just sitting on the lot....


OBTW isnt the Crazy Mouse a spinning version of the older Wild mouse or am I just totally off base on that one?? Wouldn't be the first time....LOL
