Lincoln Park Comet - Sim

[agordon1515]

Some of the coaster is still standing, some has collapsed, but none has been removed yet for the development. They are talking about October........

Awesome job, that is exactly how I remember it as a kid...even the sound of the track is correct. :) Thanks for letting me relive it once again.

fantastic simulation! I used to live near Lincoln Park but never been to it when open and always wondered what it was like riding that coaster. The similation seemed really accurate. Thank you very much!

About 65% of the ride still stands today. I believe some of or a couple of the small hills are leaning terribly crocked and may not make it thru this winter coming. Little America Park still has the cars. Always interested in hearing memories or looking at pictures others may have from 40's 50's 60's 70's 80's. I likem all.

the comet is still standing i climbed up to the 2nd story today. the engine room is also intact with the electric motor and big 10ft wheel that spun the chain to lift the cars. the belt for it is also there. the rest of the park is a mess and mostly torn or burnt down.

there are sections that fell over though.

lol a ted to fast... or alot... i onely know because of swampfoxers vid

[AtomicDragon71]

Clearly the original coaster had more friction and a few trim brakes. I don't remember it going quite that fast near the end.

This would actually be cool for one of those Simulators you ride at Putt Putt and places like that

[Fanik1977]

oh nevermind, lol

[Fanik1977]

When did this park close, 1982?

[ted81876]

1987 was the last year

[paramorian21]

ok, i have a question about NOLIMITS, can u actually have a theme park and put people in it?

[GymProv]

There was a sign at the top of the hill. I wish you had included it. I can't remember what was on it except for "remain seated".

[buzzbaybear]

Last warning! hold your hat and safety bar

[GymProv]

Thanks Buzz! :) Was that you behind me in the first car in 1969. I think I was finally tall enough that year! God I feel old! LOL

[GymProv]

They really should have save this ride. I guess the cars will be put to use elsewhere, but the wooden structure is rotting away on land that was supposed to be condos before the real estate crash. Lincoln Park would probably do well now, with people traveling less. I miss the old place.

[odog65]

I wonder if Palace Entertainment would see it that way

[chrissyf999]

That roller coaster is still there , i go by it all the time. i was not tourn down. its STILL remaining there. BUT , there are gates all around the park.

Coaster (most of it) still standing as of February 2009.

The Comet still stands today, it wasnt torn down yet! The lift hill did collapse in the 2005 blizzard in January, & the platform tower collapsed in May of 2008.

[ccg1171]

I miss Lincoln Park, it was better then Rocky Point by far...

[2BPhyxsius]
