Carousel Organ at Six Flags Park, Agawam, MA
By Ray Cardogno

I was at Six Flags New England a couple of weeks ago and felt cheated
when the carousel looked classic but was grossly lacking in the
ambiance that only an acoustic instrument can provide.  I did not even
go close to it.  It seemed cheapened to me.  I thought, "If only they
used a real carousel organ".

Thanks for bringing the fact to my attention that there actually
recently was a real instrument there and that I can do something about
it.  I have six kids and the "inevitable" next time I am there I will
go give a good word that there _is_ a difference and most folks will
be impressed by the difference.  Sooo, next time you're there...
