4451ArticlejkatzI've heard many a horror story about Action Park (or Traction Park, as it's sometimes called). You using a Simpsons picture made me laugh because to me the place always sounded like it could be a location on the show. Even though it was horrifically unsafe, I'm sort of glad it existed and am a little sad I never got to visit it. It makes for some great stories. Jun 16, 2018View
4450ArticlemickyarberYeah, it was a pretty magical time for sure. I’m so glad my mother hung onto all the pictures too. I gained them in my possesion a few years ago, and have wanted to write about it ever since.Wagon Train VacationsJun 16, 2018View
4449ArticleNLoganI have ridden on many a alpine slide. Hurtling at breakneck speed down a concrete shoot with no way to steer other than leaning and a lever for a break, what could go wrong?A So So Day at Action ParkJun 16, 2018View

4447ArticleNLoganAwesome Mick. I loved the old pictures. I like how specific memories of how you received toys or read the magazine are tied in. I can remember reading specific issues of comics on trips or receiving a particular toy also. I participated in Mountain Man rendezvous for several years that had various games and competitions and we dressed up, and a pioneer trek once that had wagons and handcarts that were similar.

4445ArticlepikachuloverI read about Action Park on reddit. They used to have those bus day trips. They were usually to somewhere in Nevada to gamble and they were "no kids allowed" trips. A So So Day at Action ParkJun 16, 2018View

4443ArticleVaporman87You came away with your life, so that is a plus. LOL. Yes, it had quite the reputation for sure. But it should be a tale worth telling just for the novelty of having experienced it. A So So Day at Action ParkJun 16, 2018View
4441ArticleVaporman87Wagon Train sounds amazing. The way in which you recall these special adventures gives the reader a sense of almost being there. It's sad that it had to come to an end, but its memory will live on in you. Thank you for sharing this Mick.Wagon Train VacationsJun 16, 2018View
