Is Marvel Cave a National Historic Landmark?

[edit]

Although I was the one who wrote it, I'm not sure if Marvel Cave is a National Historic Landmark. If it isn't, what is it? Branson03 15:11, 16 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I was wrong, it is a National Natural Landmark. Branson03 03:14, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not professional sounding at all

[edit]

This article really doesn't sound very professional. It gets particularly bad in 1.6 and 1.7, where second person perspective is even used.

I Agree. It reads like something written by a Silver Dollar City PR lackey. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1man838 (talkcontribs) 02:49, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Marvel Cave cable train track gauge

[edit]

Does anyone happen to know the track gauge (space between the rails) for the funicular cable train that takes you out of Marvel Cave at the end of the tour? There is almost no information available anywhere for this railway on the Internet besides the fact that it opened in 1958, and it doesn't even seem to have a proper name besides "Cable Train." I can't prove it by any means, but its track gauge appears to be 4 ft (1,219 mm), which is a very uncommon gauge. If this is accurate, this would possibly make it the widest track gauge used by an amusement park railway in North America. Jackdude101 (Talk) 14:40, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If the funicular cable train at Marvel Cave in Silver Dollar City was designed by a European company, the gauge could very well be 1,200 mm (3 ft 11+14 in), which is not an uncommon gauge for funiculars. Jackdude101 (Talk) 6:22, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
