Discovering The History Of Cedar Point At The Frontier Town Museum

[@brianbeduhn8138]

I commend you for your love of history. It’s fantastic to see young people who do what they love and appreciate the history of how their loves have evolved. Young enthusiasts would be well served by studying the history of thrill rides and roller coasters. Arrow has done more for the industry than any other company, and by a wide margin. I’m impressed that you have such a deep appreciation of Arrow rides.

I love Arrow Rides, it was great to experience many different ones on this trip

thank you for this vid. it brings back so many memories of my visits to cp and there have been many over the years. I'm in MI. I'm 63. my first visit there was when I was 11 years old. I was last there when I was around forty years old. its changed so much over the years so you just took me on such a nostalgic trip. so many cherished memories of cp. "welcome back riders. enjoy your day, at cedar poiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiint"

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you for sharing your memories!

Town Hall Museum is one of my favorite attractions at Cedar Point for some reason. Ever since I was a little girl. We would go right before or right after riding the Mine Ride

[@ronaldlatosinski4066]

Cedar point is my home park. Thnx for the vlog in the museum. Really bringing back memories.

Amazing to see how much park history this place has and that’s there’s more than just the coasters too.

I'm SO glad you made this video for your audience! I, too, had no idea this museum existed, but found myself wandering past it, and kinda poking my head in the door, thinking, "Hello? What's THIS?.....". Two hours later.... ROFL....I, too, got to meet the model maker, who was further along at the point I saw it, though still not operational. He was literally walking out the door, and (truly) I felt guilty (and said so) BUT....."do ya have JUST a minute???...". I mean, the poor guy was going HOME after a long day of dealing with this project, and here's yet ANOTHER dumba** Guest with some dumba** questions he's answered 40 gazillion times...but he was as NICE AS COULD BE. Truly. And I was so thankful to have had that half hour or so of his time. Going back (and bringing a buddy) this 20-22 July, 2019. Hope to run into you Shawn!

Thanks for watching!

So makes me wish that Blackpool Pleasure Beach had a museum like this with all the history since it was founded in 1896

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It would be fantastic, it's such a shame that both Pleasure Beach and Alton Towers don't have something like this

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

Theme Park Worldwide - any park for that matter

[@porkins74]

Thank you for taking the time to film this.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Not a problem, thanks for watching!

[@halcyondaystunes]

Been looking forward to this one, Shawn and you definitely didn't disappoint. great video :) And most importantly you didn't rush it.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you, I love discovering the history!

Up through the early 2000s you could play most of the old games like the baseball, horse race, fortune teller, nickelodeons, etc. and others. At some point, certainly by 2004, most of them were converted to display status.

Fun fact: The maze, or as you say, "cow pen" portion of Maverick's queue is the former loading platform of White Water landing. It had a round rotating loading platform with a concrete trough around it (like Thunder Canyon does). The platform was removed and filled with concrete.as you enter that portion of the queue if you look of to the left you can still see the concrete trough entering/exiting the once load/unload station.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for the information!

[@peanutismint]

Loved this mate!! So glad you took the time to check it out for us :-) Thanks.

[@Wintis_Swizzle]

Loving the Cedar legacy. Loving the reference to Charlotte with the trophy. Fantastic series of vlogs from this park. Keep it up Shawn!!!! 👍👍

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you!

[@charitysusan8234]

You should check out the haunted history of the Muller military horse. The dark brown one. Very interesting and very spooky.

[@daviddelano-oakes1082]

Awsome vlog shaun I'm glad you did this one

[@jt8643]

[@carschannel3099]

Nice History Lesson Shawn !!!! Alton Towers Needs one of those

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It could be amazing at Alton Towers!

[@michaelwise6020]

Get over to cedar point soon steel vengeance is up and running I’ll be coming back in 2 weeks

[@worldwidebear1967]

I recommend the book "Cedar Point - The Queen Of American Watering Places" by David W. Francis and Diane DeMali Francis from 1995 (ISBN 0-935408-03-07). Good history book of the park, with a lot of pictures in it.

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

Omt, how did I miss that place?! 0.0

[@drewblouch8625]

Great Video!

[@themeparkreconnoiter9787]

Im gonna call it Evil Streak instead of SV

[@nicholashilton2514]

God, that ceiling is horrible. You think with all the money Cedar Fair has, they could at least make this look more like a gallery and less like a thrift shop. Cool video, though!

[@user-ul8kv6hu7n]

Hi, in the april vlog u said u would be going to flamingo land this year are going this month, july or in later months?

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It'll be later on this year

[@allaboard7360]

You and Charlotte should get married. Propose on a roller coaster, On an inversion !

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I'm sure we will do!

[@RikFTK]

So how much did you offer the park to buy some of those vintage mugs? 😉

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I wish!

[@whenisdinner2137]

What was the ballroom is now a massive arcade

[@guzziman011]

Thanks for sharing this. Been to Cedar Point a few times but never went to the museum. First roller coaster I rode was the Blue Streak in 1968 and took my son there in 2000 and his first ride ever on a coaster was the blue streak. I live about 1 1/2 hour way from Cedar Point so I guess I'll call it my home park. You should check out Kings Island too, I love the beast. If you truly love locomotives and trains you should watch this video of this museum of one of the master carvers if not the master carver in the world located in my home town. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYq8d4Gcm5qYaJI
