Contrary to some rumors, no one ever died on the roller coaster, and it also was never stuck upside-down. The site Orient Express was located on also remains empty, contrary to the belief that Spinning Dragons and Patriot replaced the roller coaster. Behind Spinning Dragons, the ride's old station still remains.

Oh...damn. Never heard about that. I always assumed the Timber Wolf was the unsafe one. Every time I rode it, it felt like maybe it was gonna fall apart and break in midair.
