Does anyone know the dates for the next auction at SFAW? I saw a blurb on Channel 13 last night saying something about another auction, but I did not catch the info. What is left to auction besides the rides that did not make the reserve?
Thanks,
Steve

Sorry to invade your forum. I live near SFGAm, there are multi colored rafts in the employee lot. Ours are only yellow. So if Thunder River used different color rafts this may be where they will be stored. I am not sure if your Looping Shuttle ride has been shipped, or not. But we have one in storage in our bone yard. I am not sure if that is yours, or our Power Dive that was removed a few years back. I will try to post some pictures when I learn how.

It will not be relocated. SFGAm recently received at least six rafts from Thunder River. There are 4 orange, 1 brown, and 1 green raft that I know of. They are sitting in SFGAm's employee lot next to our Roaring Rapids rafts.

Already mentioned the rafts. And that looping starship is Power Dive, SFAW's is/was white.

Chances are they'll be using the rafts at SFGRAM for the rapids ride at that location,no need to make apologies for "invading" the boards...the only reason I post for example is to find out what's going on with ultra twister,which I hear has definitely arrived at SFA but aside from that it's still a great way for we enthusiasts to get together.
I'm suprised to hear there's gonna be another auction,I thought the auction that was held a month or so ago was the only one they were gonna have but seeing as certain rides didn't meet the reserve I guess they're willing to give it another go.

Yeah I heard about the sale of frontier city but as far as I know they're only relocating the corporate HQ to NYC,not opening any new parks.

^The only question now is will it lead to more parks being closed?
There are some things I just don't like about the new management such as no major coasters for the forseeable future...& that's just for starters.
