We are hoping to find about more, please help us out! The main discussion page is here https://www.facebook.com/CoasterTalkNoBsZone/posts/375636709232996 or you can post what you know on this post. Any corrections on this information would be appreciated and any possible additional whereabouts of NAD trains. They are quickly going towards extinction and we want to know where all of the trains are at.

  2. The problem is that those are just NAD installations. They don't cover rides that run NADs but are not NAD installations, such as Kennywood's Thunderbolt and CLP's Blue Steak along with existing trains that are either sitting neglected and forgotten and trains that may be on display or in a collection somewhere.
