Specific Type: Big Apple/ Wacky Worm
|
In the spring of 1993 Worlds of Fun added a fun family addition to its growing coaster collection called Wacky Worm. It is a Preston & Barbieri Big Apple Wacky Worm model, and originally featured a giant apple that the worm themed train passed through as the central visual element of the ride. In 2011 the ride was rethemed to Peanuts as it was in the Camp Snoopy area. The apple turned into a giant pumpkin and then a celestial body. The lights in the area look like little reentry/landing spacecrafts. When your junior thrill seekers hop into the six car train they depart the station in a gentle right hand turn to line up with the lift hill. At the top of the lift the train does a turn around passing through the planet for the first time, the train stays up high and bumps around over a straight with some slight dips in it. On the opposite side of the layout the train banks and descends to the ground and passes through the planet again. It banks around and reenters the station but passes right through for a second lap. The riders can then depart from their adventure through space and dare to dream of bigger and better rides
