The Legend was rebuilt and the train was replaced for the 1989 season -- which corresponds to a change of park ownership.
Severely damaged by a storm in June, 1968.
The Legend once was officially-claimed to have opened in 1927. There was no evidence for a coaster opening that year based on newspapers from that time. In contrast, newspapers do mention the ride opened June 8, 1930. The official opening has since changed to 1930.
