I worked at Palisades Nuclear Amusement Park back in the 70s... what is the story here?

I can't get on the web site, company prohibitions and all that, but if memory serves me right I believe this is an European nuke that never went critical.  It was bought by an entreprenour who made it inot an amusement park.  Roller coaster throught the cooling tower, etc.
No where near as much fun as Palisades!  ;)

Kinda creepy that you don't see many kids in the photos. The one with the tea cups looks like a mob boss meeting.  :)

On a related note, you can visit one if you are in the Phillipines!
