dbo:abstract
  • Texas Cyclone in Six Flags AstroWorld (Houston, Texas, USA) war eine Holzachterbahn des Herstellers und den Konstrukteuren und William Cobb, die am 12. Juni 1976 eröffnete. Ihre letzten Runden fuhr sie am 30. Oktober 2005, bevor der Park geschlossen wurde. Zuerst wollte der Park den Cyclone von Coney Island aufkaufen und in ihren Park versetzen, da dieser zu jener Zeit in Gefahr schwebte, abgebaut zu werden. Dann beschloss AstroWorld William Cobb einzustellen um ein Spiegelbild des Cyclones zu designen und zu bauen. Texas Cyclone war die einzige Achterbahn, die von der Frontier Construction Company gebaut wurde. (de)
