    Has anyone seen if the Rollercoaster is running during the week or only on weekends?

    Will be passing by Primm on weekdays on next trip, with someone who likes coasters.

    Be careful; they often close it down if there's a high-wind warning...

    We have done it a couple of times, combining it with an outlet mall visit. Not bad and it's never been crowded.

    No wonder nobody was around when we visited Primm. We went twice and both times on a weekday. I thought it was closed down permanently due to lack of interest.

    One hell of a ride, if your into coasters at all, it's worth the stop. Front seat is great.

    I'd have to agree. When it first opened in 1994 it tied the record for the steepest and longest drop (225 feet) of any coaster in the world. I rode it many times back when it was operating on a daily schedule. Seems like a waste for it to now be closed most of the time.

    I once took a lady friend with me there. We both got into first seat in the very front car. Then before it took off she told me she had never before ridden a roller coaster. That was one hell of an initiation for her.
