(...) Yeah, I have a 6 and 3 year old and the 3 year old would get launched 20 feet if one of those rides did a wheelie with scale force.

That is really cool! As the father of a four-year old who rides those sorts of things however I have to point out that kiddie rides would never do a wheelie like that. :) (18 years ago, 20-Oct-06, to lugnet.town, lugnet.general, FTX)

Some of you may know that the NELUG train layout has a very large Ammusement Park on the layout. Other than the trains this is the biggest draw of our layout, some might even argue that it is THE major draw of the layout. Anyway I decide to take a (...)
