Thanks for all the comments everybody! Sorry for not updating sooner, but between travel and school the past week, I've had no time to prepare an update. Check out our big announcement below!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Newport, RI - This summer, guests at Newport Pleasure Gardens will journey back to a simpler time with the extension of their Mine Town-themed area.
The new area is an expansion of the current loosely themed section of the park, which already features a log flume and patio restaurant.
The new area can only be accessed by crossing the park's small lake, on what is being called "The Pier." The area will open with two new attractions and an eatery, including one roller coaster
The roller coaster, "Hill Runner," is manufactured by Arrow Dynamics in the popular runaway mine train style. The coaster features quick turns, hills and dips, and a constant out-of-control feeling. The park has not released the cost of the ride.
"We really wanted to build on the success we had last year, and we're sure that Hill Runner and the rest of Mine Town will not disappoint our guests," said CEO, Robert Clarke.
Also opening with the park is "Rising Smoke," a themed paratrooper ride, and the Burger Bar, an outdoor patio restaurant serving fresh-grilled hamburgers and other traditional American food.
The Mine Town area will open with the park this Saturday, May 5.

Wish I could get it to work. : (

Hey guys!

Its Jimmy again! We saw that article in the paper yesterday, so the family and I headed out to Newport Pleasure Gardens today for Opening Day! Unfortunately, the new Mine Town area wasn't open! I was disappointed too, but they had a sign out saying that it was almost ready, and it would be open next weekend. I guess I just have another reason to come back now!

Check out some of the pictures I took!


Boy, has it been a long winter! We stopped inside the Train Station for a ride.


Somehow, it was my first time riding it. Not exactly thrilling, but still fun. At least the line wasn't too bad.


We hopped on Tree Gliders after that. I forgot what it feels like to fly!


I passed on the Bumper Cars though - just wasn't in the mood.


I took this shot while I was bored in line for Dream Tower. The view from the top is always worth the wait!

I'll be back next weekend for the opening of Mine Town and Hill Runner, but after that, I'll be busy studying. I've got my freshman exams coming up, but after that, I'll have all summer to spend at the park.

See ya later!
Jimmy

Shame Mine Town wasn't open, but I still can't wait to see it

Coasteriffic

you should add theme lands of your park like spooky western adventure and the future

Coasteriffic: Thanks! Check out Mine Town below!

DutchBros: My park has a few lightly themed areas, but I plan to add more detailed themes in the future. Thanks for the comment!

Sorry again for the delay, I've been busy with another project. Don't worry, this park is staying, cause it's not RCT3. Its my own amusement industry news/park review site, Park Impressions! Check it out here: parkimpressions.blogspot.com/

Hey guys!

Sorry I haven't been back to the park lately, I've been so busy cramming for exams! I didn't even make it to the opening of Mine Town. Now that school's out though, I managed to make it back to the park!


First stop, Autobahn! Looks like a bit of new theming!


You sure get a great view of High Street from this corner of the park.


I rode Fun Slide too. Believe it or not, it was fun!


When I finally got back to Mine Town, it wasn't very busy. Probably because it was a weekday.


At least it meant no line for Hill Runner!


Hill Runner was good, but nothing beats Monstrum!

I'll have more pictures soon!

See ya later, Jimmy

Liking it! Is it ok if we could see some more pictures of Hill Runner too?

really nice park
