This ride is immensely fun. Hit this park on the way to Cedar Point from Baltimore (also going to Lakemont and Waldameer that day). This ride caused my friend and I to have so much fun. We rode it like 8 times in a row as no one was at the park due to off and on rain. Memories!

If Skyliner passes inspection, anything can. By which I mean it's a pretty shaky coaster and can be get pretty rough at some time.

[@artisticdiva1]

I rode this coaster back in the sixties long before it fell into such disrepair. Even though I understand that steps have been taken to being it back to it's glory days I would be reluctant to ride it now. Such a shame as it really is a fun ride. No one makes mention of the graphic in the station. At one time the red bulbs would light up so the people waiting in line to ride could track the progress of the car as it sped along the track.

[@Kaitydid74]

I remember that from the mid eighties...great memories

[@andrewschannel4259]

And when the mounted camera shakes.

[@ardiris2715]

I loved this roller coaster so much, I got the job of inspecting the track every day the summer before I headed to Parris Island. I rode it 2 or 3 circuits before opening and again after closing. Once a week, I walked the entire circuit with a crowbar and a sledge hammer. The whip and the airtime in the back seat with the rest of the cars empty was unreal. We had to do that to assure the forces were still safe. Judging the condition here, it wasn't salvageable when they abandoned it. The last pictures I saw of it, the cars had been disassembled and most of the wheels were missing. It didn't burn down. It was demolished, and the junk wood pile caught fire. The rest of my day was spent driving the train and hoping the deer wouldn't escape. The Wild Mouse was maintained by a contractor. Most of the other rides were sold to collectors and small parks that feature nostalgia rides. Another of my favorites was the fun house, but they tore out the labyrinth and installed a Scrambler that they ran with the lights out with black lights and hard rock music. It was as cheesy as it sounds. (:

[@milmil6594]

...I can remember as a kid going to Conneaut and as soon as getting out of my parents car racing to the Blue Streak ...This memory is forever a memory i never want to forget..This park may not have been a 6 flags type of park but for its foot print in history it was every bit as exciting to go to when you were a kid..

[@51gary51]

I rode the Conneaut Lake BLUE STREAK just once back in the 1980's. It was so rough, I hated it. Couldn't wait for the train to return to the station in one piece. Now that it's gone, I'm feeling saddened by its demise. I find myself watching videos of the BLUE SREAK in a whole new perspective -- wishing I had a chance to ride it one more time.

great coaster, it was my first "big" coaster when I was a kid. I rode it last summer for the first time in probably 20 years, it was great but it does not give you to many feelings of safety

My God! This looks like it was the greatest roller coaster ever! It’s like if an old amusement park was abandoned for 20 years and then some thrillseeker kids discovered it in all its dilapidated glory and tried to ride it for the first time. I would’ve been scared to death on this thing!

A classic ride, but like everything at that park, it just seemed destined to burn. It was only a matter of time.

Didn't make the 40 minute trip down there this year, but I see Conneaut Lake Park has still not yet invested in a piece of plywood to fully close up that tunnel. Maybe next year (they should have announced "new piece of plywood" addition for 2018 on roller coaster day).

[@Mr.Killjoy95]

I’d bet that the law will require them to have an expensive, professional crew to come out to screw that plywood back on. There can’t be any other reason it would take them over 2 years to do that. I get why rules are in place but plywood is plywood and screws are screws. If the roof fails in some way, there isn’t any other protection or precaution that a professional crew would add.

[@Coaster_Universe]

@@Mr.Killjoy95 The crew that maintains the coaster is all volunteers, there were other parts of the coaster that needed tending to before they could focus on the tunnel. They have fixed it for this year but there was tons of structural and track work done over the past few years.
