A short vid of the Thunderbolt in Coney Island, which was demolished on Nov. 17, 2000 at the age of 75. Pics and music. Worth a viewing.

    Your post should say “illegally demolished” by the Guiliani administration to make way for one of their pet projects, Keyspan Park. The owners took the city to court, twice, but of course lost both times.
