Six Flags St. Louis, Eureka, Missouri

Being built up on the wooded hillside there's not much that can be seen of the Eagle from the rest of the park.

There is a fantastic swoop turnaround before the Eagle really begins. A little note here, when you get to the top of the lift look out ahead of you and you'll see the Six Flags St. Louis bone yard. Currently the Sky Screamer Freefall ride from Astroworld is sitting there in addition to parts of other rides and Fright Fest attractions.

I am a big fan of the Screamin' Eagle but unfortunately over the last few years it's been a painfully rough ride. I think the only track replacement that's been done has been the top couple of layers of track and what they really need to do is completely re-track this classic ride. Instead of being rough and slow a properly cared for Eagle is Fast, intense as well as delivering plenty of airtime. Please Six Flags...bring this once world-class coaster back to shape.

I love the Eagle's logo...I think it's cool that in addition to the sign by the entrance the Eagle has this one up on it's third hill.

The Rush Street Flyer is a heavily themed Falling Star. It's in the Old Chicago section of the park and Rush Street is the kind of place in Chicago that you want to go if you're in the mood for a party. The location of the Flyer is nice because you're so far up the hill the view is wonderful from the top.
