Ed Stone, who is my personal King of Amusement Park Country, contributed to this month’s column. I thought about changing my name to Roy after he told me. Enjoy!

Thank you for this wonderful story, Jim Ashworth. We had the time of our lives at Great Adventure. Some of the stories you could have told would not be believed except by those of us who were there. Thank you for your Forever Friendship and the times we enjoyed.

When I see a Wildcat my first thought is to rush and get in line. This car wasn’t going anywhere, but you know it had some kind of life. A great retirement home for it in the National Roller Coaster Museum.

Aren’t round signs the best? I love amusement park signs. Of course I knew and loved one of the Masters Of Amusement Park signs, though he did not make or paint this one. His are very distinctive.. Some of you knew him too. Bob Minick Sr.From the National Roller Coaster Museum of course.

Some of you may remember John the Carousel Horse from Clacton Pier, England. Loved by many when he lived with us, the world will be able to see and admire him astride his pole when the National Roller Coaster Museum opens in Plainview, Texas. He’s always been a showoff and will love meeting and greeting his fans. Just looking at his picture makes me smile.
