What's the difference if they have a coaster that most people don't like, or they are down that coaster? I understand that some of you did like the ride, and I respect that. However, the larger majority of people didn't like it, including park management and maintenance.
Who cares about the actual number of coasters a parks has? You have to look at what those rides actually are. Talon beats Great Bear any day, Thunderhawk is far superior to Comet with the respective trimming on each, Laser has much more punch than sooperdooperLooper, and their Wild Mice are, well, Wild Mice. Having ridden each, I personally think Woodstock Express has more of a kick to it than Trailblazer, which I could fall asleep on, but that is just my opinion.
So that leaves a standard boomerang (Sidewinder), a kiddie coaster with water (Roller Soaker), two excellent woodies (Wildcat & Lightning Racer), and a hydraulic launching looper. At Dorney, that leaves an excellent hyper (Steel Force), a second kiddie coaster, and in two years, what I'm expecting to be an excellent floorless. So, once the floorless is down, each of the two will have unique items to bring people in. It will all depend on what the people are looking for, good wood, or high tech steel.
