Okay, thanks for replying! Also here's my Drachen Fire station so far (I've never attempted fully recreating the station before so I'm pretty happy with how it's coming along.)

Sorry for the double post, does anybody know if the Drachen Fire plaza/area had park music speakers? Also how many, where they were located, and what music they played? I'm guessing they would have played the same music as in Oktoberfest but maybe not?
They definitely had audio in the Drachen Fire area. From what I remember (it’s been a WHILE, obviously), they were a mix of the round green flat-top speakers, and the kind designed to look like rocks.
Has any body else seen these? the auctions ended but what the hell Drachen Fire track pieces!

Only cleaned up of cutting burns. A friend owned the original cut (last picture), cut in into a few rings and I inevitably ended up with them all. Original paint from right before it was torn down.

That's not possible as it was melted down to make Griffon.

The thread was started by his son. he was going through his fathers things with his mom a while ago after his father died and came across his massive library of stuff. there is a ton of stuff here back to the original Bat trains its amazing, He has some of the original bat heads and hands, a few ride models, concept art and drawings, even some original carousel horses and molds. If you go to the reddit page and click on his username then click on his posts you will see everything he uploaded and its extensive. I spent like 3 days going through the posts and its amazing to see all that history and hear all the stories. He even has stuff on the trains they made for Vekoma loopers and suspended. he has prototype stufff from the Virgina reel spinning coaster to the Pipeline coaster its amazing all the history.
