Great job. Growing up in 1950-60s Lake George was good fun. I went to Storytown several times every summer. I still live in the area and had season passes for GE for many years as my kids were growing up. I have ridden the Comet hundreds of times. I remember climbing up the hill behind the park and watching workers assemble it. What a thrill to finally ride it when it opened. One of the best out and back coasters anywhere. It seems to gain speed constantly throughout the run. Haven’t been in years but might go next summer to ride the Bobcat and see what’s new there. The GE Lodge and indoor water park is very cool as well. Hope you revisit LG in ‘25. Really enjoyed last year’s videos. Good job as always. Thx for sharing.

The Comet was originally a twister and was considered too dangerous so was reconfigured into out and back. Just a bit of trivia for you guys. I know you appreciate info on stuff you visit

Thanks again for watching! Always nice to hear from viewers who actually lived in the golden age of all the stuff we love! Lake George is one of our favorite places since first visiting last year and we will definitely make it up there for return visits in future years!

You can see the old ghost town train cars at 38:21. Loved those as a kid but they took it out when they built the Nightmare because it ran through the que

What a shame! That building is quite an eyesore these days, tbh.. They should consider painting a mural of a western scene or something on the side so it's not so ugly during Desperado Plunge and/or like I said in the video, repurpose the old building for a year-round attraction or even better yet, tear it down and bring back the Ghost Town Train!

@@RoadsideExplorers I hope they do something with it soon. Nightmare wasnt even there for very long. Its such a waste to have the building only in use for fright fest
