Brooklyn NY 1925 THUNDERBOLT ROLLER COASTER Coney Island 1984 photo George Moran:
$16.00
4x6 color photo from my negative of the 1925 Thunderbolt, 2 years after it last operated (1982). It stood for decades with many promises of refurbishment until its underhanded sneaky demolition as the sun rose one tragic morning in 2000. This coaster predated Coney's other twolarge coasters, the Tornado and still operating Cyclone. Note the building within the coaster that was featured in many films, it was the former 1895 Kensington Hotel and the coaster was built around it. The coasters owners for many years, the Moran family (and friends) built the coaster and resided there for 60 years. FREE SHIPPING.
