Yesterday was the end of the line for the Turnpike ride at Pittsburgh's Kennywood Park.  It's being replaced for a new coaster.

I saw this on the news a few days ago as well.  Really sad.  But I do hope they find a new place for it. :)

Noooooo, that ride is epic as an parkgoer and a roadgeek. :-(

For those who want to take a virtual trek down the Turnpike one final time can go here...
