Not to go off topic but does anyone remember the 2 Toboggans that ran end to end at Hershey Park in the late 70's to early 80's. They were located in the carousel square/circle with Comet outback behind them.

That was a sight!!


Nope, don't think I was ever there.  I was at the chocolate factory in the 1970s with my parents though!

How is that, 2 Toboggans end to end?? Do you mean as it would come to an end it would reverse up the other???



They were backed up to each other, trailer end to trailer end and ran away from each other. It was a site, that I can still remember. Thank goodness for my photographic memory. They were painted in a red, white and blue scheme.

Someone else remembers them at the attached link:

I can't seem to find a picture of this anywhere. Does anyone have one?? None on Google Images I could find.  I'd save it for a screen saver for my desktop!
