Coney Gears Up For Summer

Astroland may be empty thanks to Thor Equities, but this summer there is still plenty to do at Coney Island. As Coney's roving-eye Capt_Nemo caught, a few rides over at Deno's Wonder Wheel Amusement Park, some rides have come out of hibernation and getting slowly polished and ready for the coming season. As Capt_Nemo reported on the Coney Island USA message board; Gregory & Paul's on the boardwalk and Steve's Grill were already open.

Above are men at work on the Cyclone Roller Coaster which will still be operated by former owner of the late Astroland Amusement Park, Carol Albert and company. We cross our fingers that the season won't suffer a huge drop in attendance.
