Magic Mountain Mondays #21: Gold Rusher signage

Now this sponsor makes a bit more sense. Film and camera companies have long been theme park sponsors. After all, people are taking tons of pictures at theme parks. So while Mine Train Coaster != Camera Film, there is a connection there. Also - remember Kodak?

In August of 1995, I took a bunch of photos (on film no less) at Six Flags Magic Mountain using an inexpensive camera. I was working as an Operations supervisor at the time, and the purpose of the project was to create a slide show for an employee appreciation party for our Operations staff. I’ve carted these slides around for over 25 years and I finally had them digitally transferred this year. About 2/3s of them aren’t available for posting because they are crew pictures and I have no way to request permission to post them. But I do have 50+ available that are just various shots of the park. Enjoy this time capsule from August 1995.
