SFNE 10-14-06 Photo TR Superhero Celebration
It was a Cold Start in the high 20's to Low 30's but it did warm up to the high 50's with Bright Sun and not a cloud in the ski.
This was my first trip to SFNE and my first ride on S:ROS and I say it is a COMPLETE coaster from start to finish. We also had ERT from 10:40pm to 11:45pm and it was cold I'm sure wind chills in the Teens I forgot my gloves but had my hood. Got a Total of 17 rides for the day that includes a Gold Flashpass.Also notice a meet and greet with the park GM and other staff and a raffle which included items like Superman's chain link,Wheels,Cyclones sign and other items (i did not win) see pics below I reduced them from original 3000x2300 to 800x600 for viewing
Edit: THe pics are cut off on the right unless you use the slider at the bottom of the page or I will try to resize them - Or if you log out yo can see the right side
MODS is there a way to shrink/collapse the left or right side info columns  ?  (MOD edit:  the left and right column both have shrink/expand header options to temporarily collapse the columns)
thanks
Tom

After some good GIANT Pizza down the road we hit the park again minus my camera so no ERT pics or night shots. I did have more pics but tried to keep it under 30 pics

Also I didn't bring my Camera on Superman but near the end of the night they stopped the ride with a train  on the hill and the train I was in on the brake run.Someone had a camera out while the Train was ascending the lift so they had to stop the chain and have an employer walk up and get the camera. They don't want any accidents. Took abou 20 minutes to reset the ride.

Yay for Superman! I was stuck up on Superman cause some idiot had a camera out, it was cool though but cold.

Nice pictures though, I really like SFNE!

Yes they are both great coasters.
Superman is action packed from the Drop to the brake run.
It fills like Superman hits the brakes at 40 MPH ? and very close to the station.
Its a complete coaster
ET slows a bit near the end
But they are both very FUN to ride and re-ride.
Yes the Terror trail up there was much much better and longer like I said I think they had more help (employees)
