Something that has bugged me is why did they take the skyride down when they built Griffon and then not redesign it? They really do need another station or two. Going from Germany to Italy in the area of Roman Rapids would make a lot of sense and then on to England.
As for the train, I have a feeling if they expand Germany or add a new country in the Drachen Fire area that they may put in a new train station. Any thoughts? actually this topic could come under rumors or the future of BGE, but since I wanted to talk about 2 attractions, I put it here. smile.gif

Thankfully for us, I believe they decided to focus more on Griffon than redesigning something that we're lucky hasn't been taken out at this point. Considering the fact that not many parks have skyrides anymore, I'm just thankful they decided to hook it back up and build the ride around it. Also, it's not like they did major surgery to take it apart, they just took the cables down.

You want a modified Skyride? I bet it would be a few million $ to modify that ride, actually, it would be a new ride...

1. Plan
2. Tear down old stations
3. Build new stations
4. Cut a new path in the trees
5. String a new cable $$$


You cant reuse the stations because the are positioned for a triangle, the buildings might be easy to modify, but think about all that metal work that needs to be re-done to fit the new system, so I think it would be cheaper to build a hole new system.


It would be nice, but I don't think it is very likely. As for the train station, I think that would be a great idea! I can only think that the Festhouse could be a problem, but it is a great idea!
