The Screamin' Eagle has a nice swoop turn before sending you down
it's first big hill.
The Screamin' Eagle is all about hills being a John Allen design.
John Allen was not a fan of twisters, helixes or lateral G forces.
Airtime was the prominent feature of his designs and he considered the Screamin'
Eagle to be his masterpiece.
Unfortunately there's not a whole lot that you can see of the Screamin'
Eagle from the park because just a few hills peek out from above the tree
line. But what you can see of it is a work of art.
This building right next to the Screamin' Eagle entrance used to be one
of Six Flags St. Louis' skyway stations. ***I stand corrected this
building has always been a games building. The skyway went from where
Excalibur is over to where the Axis Games are next to Batman.***
