Canobie Lake Park's "Yankee Cannonball"
Salem, New Hampshire

      The Yankee Cannonball was installed at Canobie in 1936, by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company of Lansdale, PA.  It is 63 feet high and 2000 feet long.  It has 2 trains, each with three cars, holding 18 people per train. The capacity is about 900 per hour. It was originally at a park in Connecticut and moved to Canobie Lake Park in 1936.
     Unfortunately, I didn't get a whole lot of extra pictures while in New Hampshire, sorry. They do however have another coaster.  It's an Arrow corkscrew. This is a very nicely maintained family park, located only a short distance above the Mass/NH border, not far from Nashua, NH.  (Near Boston)
