@Chris, this coaster makes terrible decisions and consistently scores in the bottom percentile in every intelligence test administered to the 12 coasters. Even the family woodie scores higher.
@nave, the next coaster scheduled for release is not a B&M, but an H&M.
@Pineracer, you've stumbled upon a very subtle reference. Think of how The Joker acquired his signature appearance.
No new coasters will be released for the remainder of this month, so the standard updates will continue to continue.
The Western Tram Lines would not function as an amusement park ride with just one station, and management realized after the ride had operated for only three months, so they built the second station in a region known as quasi-Egypt, which looks almost Egyptian enough to possibly be affiliated with Egypt but not quite enough like Egypt to be labeled as Egyptian. The only part of the park that's officially recognized as Egyptian is the ride that runs red American pickup trucks around a large, empty building built by a guy named Steve that has a 10,000-volt electric fence around it.
Upon exiting or before entering this station, one will see a pool on each side of the building. This is because the station suffers from OCD and demanded perfect symmetry within certain proximity. The pools are used for employee swimming lessons, which are mandatory for all employees since thousands of people drown in this park annually. Before the swimming lessons were mandatory, the numbers were in the tens of thousands, so the Brookwood executives like to think they're making a difference by reducing the numbers just enough to make it look like they're making a difference. Occasionally, a guest will hop the fence, jump into the pool, and drown during an employee swimming lesson. When Brookwood Gardens passed the mandatory swimming lesson rule, the only employees they could afford to have teach the courses were existing employees who had never been in a pool, so they were given books about swimming and told to memorize whatever they could. As a result, these employees know how to swim, but they can't physically swim, so it's up to the student to save any guest who cannonballs into the water and doesn't come back up. The guests who survive are the lucky ones who dive in close to the end of an employee's training, while the unlucky ones fly in during the beginner phase. All swimmers in training are given kickboards, but unfortunately they interpret the name literally and use them to kick the drowning guests, which they think is correct. This is why eighteen percent of all guests who drown in Brookwood Gardens annually drown in one or both of these pools even though the water is only two and a half feet deep.
Across the path, guests are greeted with traditional Egyptian items: life-sized plastic dinosaurs, which can also be seen from the trams. On that same path, on each side of the small bridge, two horsemen statues can be seen. These were built to symbolize the olden days when, before the trams were built, men rode horses on the tracks.
Wagon Wheel, a Ferris wheel, is just a hop, skip, and a topple from the tram station. The Wild West makes up the entire southernmost portion of the park, and this portion is the furthest west, though not quite as far west as the Middle East. This chunk of the Wild West is known as the Rocky Mountains, which also includes a wooden roller coaster, a river rapids ride, and a pirate-themed log ride for some reason.
Wagon Wheel opened in 1976, and people actually noticed in the following year. Ridership was not only low, but the existence of the ride actually decreased attendance significantly because people believed that, after seeing pictures of a giant wagon wheel, they were convinced there was a giant wagon somewhere waiting for the right time to run everybody over. This consternation cost Brookwood Gardens so much in revenue that they finally built a giant wagon with three wheels just outside the park and explained to guests that it had crashed many years ago and was no longer a threat to the general population. This reassurance brought the attendance level to a record high in 1978 since it also brought in guests who had suspected a giant wagon was on the loose years before the construction of Wagon Wheel began.
This Ferris wheel is one of the safest rides in the park, having only killed guests on one occasion when the wheel detached from the support towers and rolled around the park. Out of the 137 guests flattened, only nineteen were flattened to death. Following the incident, engineers improved the strength of the connection, and since then, the wheel hasn't strayed away from home. Occasionally it refuses to rotate due to the 27 tons of scotch tape on each end of the axle, so guests will sometimes remain marooned at the top of the wheel for several weeks at a time, but none have ever starved to death due to the amount of food thrown in Brookwood Gardens on a daily basis.
