It was great to visit!

Tip: In the USA most local parks don't really kick things into gear until Memorial Day. It marks the start of summer for a lot of schools, so parks wont operate at full capacity until then. That's why you encountered a lot of closed things during your trip.

We sure did!

21:12 56 inches to feet is 4 feet and 8 inches. I remember McDonald's Playland does have a height restriction close to that. Not much time in life to ride that kids coaster. You cannot ride it if under 36 inches or over 56 inches. I need to get out to Lake Compounce someday, my grandmother lives in Connecticut and is 90 years old, but I will still go if I have no relatives left living in CT.

Love to see y’all exploring a new park

You 2 are amazing Shaun and Charlotte, you keep me entertained for many hours ❤️

Been going to this park since I was six years old. Not only is it nostalgic but the park has done a great job at staying up to date with the updated coasters and adding new rides. The food is also awesome. Thanks for sharing I'm glad you enjoyed!

In regards of the Titan Track on Boulder Dash, they put Titan Track specifically on hard to reach and high stress areas, and the Titan Track has actually allowed the ride to run the fastest it’s ever ran. Also, Titan Track isn’t always their default choice. The ride also got some new IPE wood track from GCI this offseason, so it will still be a wooden coaster.

@ThemeParkWorldwide

Thanks for sharing! The titan track sections were very smooth and was running very fast!

That building currently hosting an arcade used to be a bumper car site. From childhood memory, bumper cars were there from at least around 2000 to 2010 or so.

How exciting a new park! That boulder dash what a unique coaster going through the trees. Beautiful scenery there and the layout looks fantastic! Happy you were able to get some POV's before they shut it down lol

Never heard of this park, but it looks amazing. Loving the entrance too with the house. 👍

I remember riding on The Ultimate rollercoaster at LightWater Valley sadly now long closed and demolished. Seeing Boulderdash here just brought back memories for me, it looks truly awesome following the mountain side. This is a great little park and to hear it’s the oldest in America wow! Fantastic vlog once again TPW crew.

Believe it or not fresh cut fries are not offered all around America. They are big on the east coast and then scattered. People actually get excited when offered. For example I am from and grew up in NY. They were more or less expected and the norm. I moved to Ohio and not so much. Penn Station was about the only place. I was so excited when I went to Kings Island and found out the fries at the Potato’s Work stand were fresh cut. More places have them around here now but not enough. I just started making them at home. Bought a special slicer and deep fryer just for them…LOL!! No frozen fries in this house😁. Glad you two are having fun at these last two parks I have seen.

It fills my heart with so much joy to see you experience Boulder Dash. I think a lot of us can share that feeling of anticipation of wanting to do a certain coaster for so long, then finally getting to do it. Just watching the first POV wowed me and took my breath away with how fast and smooth it is. I think it could possibly be the best way to go in the future to save (and improve) all of those old wooden coasters out there, to replace with the Titan tracks. If it makes them even smoother and faster than before, that's a great thing!

I can understand the use of titan track on BD. Must be a challenge accessing parts of that coaster for the maintenance teams. Still need to get a decent woodie on the credit list, rode Rollercoaster express last week, that is the opposite of decent :)

This is a very cute park, our woodie coaster Predator has bunches of titan track on it. Looks like you guys had amazing trips. Glad you are going to Rye Playland where some scenes from Big were shot, cannot wait for that . Be safe.

Great video! Still a bit bitter I won’t get to see you at Thorpe park because I’m going the 25th, but have a good time!

Wildcat was build in 1927 by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company. It's the 14th oldest operating coaster in the world, and actually opened (I believe) just before the Cyclone in Coney Island. It's a special one. Glad you got a chance to ride it. I wish you had known it's history, but I hope it enhances your experience when looking back. Lake Compounce really does wake up after Memorial Day May 28th, the unofficial start of Summer in America.

Welcome to our little slice of heaven in Connecticut. Happy you got a chance to get on Boulder Dash, but you should have waited until June to come to the park. Many of the rides don't open until we have consistently good weather here. I can tell you, this park is a great way to spend a day here.

I had no idea you had done this! You were just half an hour from where I live - could've popped round for a cuppa! I'm originally from North Wales, UK, but now living in CT, USA. I've been following your travels for a couple of years now, but completely missed this episode somehow. 🤷‍♀ (We love Boulder Dash too!)

I have been wanting to get on Boulder for years. Will try to make the 5 hour drive this summer!!

Shawn and Charlotte, WE had an Historic Carousel in Seaside Heights, N.J. on the Boardwalk that was damaged in Hurricane Sandy. It has beautiful, hand carved Horses by William Dentzel and Charles Looeff. The animals dated from 1890 to 1910, I road it with my Family many times. It was restored in Ohio and will reopen this Spring. This one is another oldie but goody, also worked on by Loeff. Cheers, Rik

The story on the trolly. It was on loan from the trolly museum for several years, but the museum decided to take it back this year

You should return one day with longer hours to get a night ride on boulder dash. Great vlog. 😊

It's such a shame that so many parks won't let you film on ride. At least you got a couple of POVs at this one but it must be annoying when you can film on some rides but not others. I wish more parks would change their policies to allow it, especially Merlin parks. Maybe one day. 🤞 Great vlog again, I've really enjoyed watching your USA trip. 😊

Its been a long time since I've been to this one but I remember reading that during the retrack of Boulder Dash they removed the triple up and changed it to a double at the end because it was entering the brake run much too fast, though very fun!

Is Boulder Dash the longest ride ever? 2 min and 10 seconds. WOW what a ride.

Takes you back to your childhood 32:50

I hear you say you're getting on a classic woodie, and Im like "Oh oh." Wildcat is at the bottom of my coaster credits. Maybe the retrack improved it. Extremely shaky. They have closed rides a lot of the time. Theyre the closest park to my house. I typically go to the 2 Six Flags nearby instead. Its unfortunate you didnt get to ride Zoomerang. That is probably the best/smoothest boomerang Ive been on (including the inverted versions).

Hey your in my hometown guys in Connecticut. I live in Bristol it was a great day yesterday for a theme park hope you enjoyed your stay. Did you know they filmed a scene in a movie called Reservation road with Joaquin Phoenix and Mark Ruffalo being at the entrance. Don’t be surprised if riding boulder dash you see a black bear lol.
