Most Drive-ins did ;the Skyview Drive-in here in Augusta had Train that ran for the kids.Below the screen.
Did you ever ride the train Mike?
Yes,I think i did.I remember going to the Skyview Drive-in.
you said something on one theatre that you didn’t think Drive-ins Should be on CT. what was your reason?Can’t remember the Drive-in you left that statement on,hope you read this.Just wondering.
Do not take me wrong Mike,I just do not have the affection for drive-ins as I do for hard tops.But the more I read about them I can see why people like them so much,in fact the photos I sent to Robin are Nashville Drive-ins.I did not say that drive-ins should not be on C.T.,that is not up to me anyway.To each his own.A lot of the theatres on C.T. are not “Cinema Treasures” to a lot of people,this site was set up to save theatres I believe,but most of them are already gone, how can you save something that is already gone.Keep the stories coming I have some Nashville Theatres on VHS video,I need to find out how to transfer them to disk and post them on C.T.
Did Robin get those Drive-ins on CT I don’t think I saw them.Nick sent me a GCC Feature Presentation trailer on Dvd.It was like Christmas morning.
Nick has a super cool picture on National Hills Theatre.
I will check out Nicks photo,and no Robin has not posted them.I have the same photos on VHS that I taped last week on Nasville Public T.V.Now back to the Barlen Drive-in.
