^^Unfortunately, my group didn't get around to riding the train that day (although we did hit the antique car ride because it's part of Flash Pass).

Sounds like you had a good time. Your first picture is of downtown Dallas, not Fort Worth. And except for the credit, you didn't miss much by not riding Judge. That ride has killed my back on the first two drops the last several times I've ridden it so I usually just skip it. It's in desperate need of some rehab.

And I agree about the creepy Mr. Six character. He looks straight out of a burn ward.

But in terms of creepiness at the park, few things have this guy beat:

^Thanks for clearing up the "Is it Dallas or Fort Worth?" question. I'm just glad it wasn't Detroit. That dude looks like a hardy Texas pioneer who barely survived the siege of the Alamo.
