Power Outage at Six Flags Over Texas Forced Riders to Climb Down From The Top of a Roller Coaster
- On Saturday, May 16, Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington suffered a power outage that forced riders to evacuate several attractions, including the Titan roller coaster.
- An external construction crew made contact with an underground power line, a Six Flags spokesperson told The Independent, causing the entire park to be decommissioned for the day.
- No injuries were reported during the evacuation of the Titan, which stands at 245 feet tall. Patrons were safely escorted off rides and provided complimentary return tickets.
- By Sunday, the park resumed normal operations and opened as scheduled. It took about two hours to fully restore power, with many rides reopening later Saturday.
- Celebrating 65 years of operations, Six Flags Over Texas looks forward to commencing daily operations this Thursday, May 21, and debuting The Tormenta Rampaging Run later this year.
