Thunderhawk Pictures

Let's go for a ride - there's the station!

A look at one of Thunderhawk's trains.

Thunderhawk is a very underrated coaster. My experience with the ride has always been great.

Thunderhawk has a 65 foot drop.

Thunderhawk was originally known as The Coaster.

I have no comment for this photo, so instead I'll let you know that as I work on this page I'm listening to an old Debbie Gibson song. (really!) How hardcore is that?

Thunderhawk reaches a top speed of 45 miles per hour.

You may have noticed that in some of the other pictures I have that Thunderhawk looks white.
It's actually the color shown in this pic. Let's just call those other photos overexposed.

Thunderhawk was originally built in 1923 but was modified in 1930.

You might be wondering why I can't seem to get a really crisp shot of the train in motion. It's because Thunderhawk is pretty well tree-lined. Even in bright sun (notice the background) - the ride is shaded. This means longer exposure times and thus the slight blur on a fast moving train. At any rate that dude in the front seems to be having a hell of a time.

Thunderhawk's entrance sign.

Thanks to some good timing on my part I've gotten quite a few solo rides on Thunderhawk.
Nothing like being the only one on a coaster. Lots of fun!

Wooosh!

Another (blurry) look at Thunderhawk - sigh.

Thunderhawk was built by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company.

Thunderhawk climbs to the top of the 80 foot lift hill.

One of my all time favorite photos.
