Sad news from Mexico as @Selvamagicagdl has closed its doors for the final time. The park opened on April 22, 1988 and is home to Bullet, the unique Schwarzkopf shuttle loop coaster, and Titan, a Sansei Yusoki custom coaster.

We're extremely saddened by the news of Dolly Parton's passing. She became such an important part of the theme park industry and we cannot thank her enough for being such an integral part of @Dollywood, helping it become one of the best theme parks in the world. We were lucky to be at many of the ride openings and announcements she attended. She will be dearly missed and forever remembered.
