I didn't think Conneat Lake was up to much, and I've got the creds, so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
Trip report from a while back below - best thing there was the scooters and some of those on that trip (@Snoo, @Error, @Hyde, @Antinos, @pkiknex25, @Youngster Joey) may remember our day there.
Canada-USA-Netherlands – August 2018 {Day 18 - Summary}
As far as locales go of parks that I've been to, La Ronde is only beaten by Cedar Point. Goliath and Vampire both look so incredible with their color schemes against the green foliage and bridge and the blue water. But I agree with you - the park does need some TLC. Again, fantastic work with...

Conneat Lake has brought out the worse in people, the Facebook groups are insane.

The ONLY redeeming quality of that particular visit was the 7 minute rust filled flying scooter cycle with the op encouraging all of us to snap themAnd actively threatening them!

Six Flags have ordered a third train for Iron Rattler:-
Most likely this train will be used as a spare when one of the other trains is in maintenance so 2 train operations can still occur, as the ride is not capable of running 3 trains simultaneously currently. What's also interesting is that Six Flags seem to be working with Gerstlauer again (albeit in a not so interesting way).
I'm really liking what the new CEO has done so far; adding a turntable to Aquaman PW, building a B&M dive in the same park that also has a spare 4th train and now this, not to mention the upgrades they have also done to Poltergeist. It's clear they are putting guest experience as a priority (at least at the Texas parks anyway) which is a huge positive.
EDIT:- New Poltergeist POV which also shows off the new queue, looks nice!

The only reply to that is.....
I'm starting to wonder if one of the reasons I don't feel like this (and a Disk-o) are creds is that very repetitive backwards and forwards they do, powered [almost] all of the way along.
Given that I also don't think a Butterfly is a cred - have I been a plonker and missed some "clearly a coaster" things that operate in this fashion?

oooo yeah thats a credit if you ask me. Basically a spinning powered shuttle coasterRES have a new ride concept from called the Wave Twist L, the important question is are we looking at a ride or a cred?
