the astroneedle was a 358ft tall tower that you would ride all the way up to the top in its cabin thats donut shaped, and it would turn all the way to the top and all the way down to view the park and houston.

the old steam engine - the original that was sitting in the round house ever since they got the gas powered train.

have you seen six flags stocks, its been going up (which is GREAT) but the past couple of days its been dropping alot. I think the hightest it went this year was 11.80. The last time I checked for Feb 15th is was 10.54

if you want to keep an eye on SF stocks, they will be posted on my posts.
