It is always great to take the Tommy G. Robertson for a spin around
the park because you get off your feet for a few, a wonderful view
of rides like Pandemonium, and the breeze is nice on a hot summer
day.

The Tommy G. Robertson has been chugging around Six Flags St. Louis
for fifty years and as good as they have taken care of the train it

As it was quite hot out we hopped in line for Thunder River where
you can get a few great views of Mr. Freeze like this...

...and this. It is great that mask mandates are gone so I can
finally get back to riding this great coaster.

Thunder River is a really underappreciated rapids ride. It
starts out nice and calm as a little homage to the Mississippi
Adventure boat ride that Thunder River replaced before descending
into a torrent of waves, splashes, and gallons and gallons of water.
