UPDATE FOR 06- The Martin Lights made a come back this year with Light Jockey to back them up. By the end of the first week, each opperator had his personalized cue list. The new program means great shows and better control of the lights.--- More of a light show than a ride, the lower speed at which the ride opperates, allows the rider to take in everything; and Electric Light Orchestra’s (ELO) Fire On High provides the perfect soundtrack. The best shows can be seen on the cool summer nights when a Mach smoke machine and three Martin Pro 218s are used. Theses lights are only used at night, when its cooler, because of their sensitivity to heat and the high cost of the bulbs. These lights add a whole new dimension to the show, and the smoke makes each light morph into something more amazing. The entrance and exit tunnels, used to keep the vinyl dome (bubble) pressurized, also add to the effect and keep the ride a mystery to non-riders. Something else you may also notice is that the operators on this ride are not typical. Each adds their own unique sense of humor to the ride safety speech. This ride uses up to 20 lights, 2 operators, and 1 black-light reactive scrambler to make this the most unique ride experience in New England.
