Time Machine (roller Coaster)
The Time Machine is a steel roller coaster that is currently standing but not operating at Freestyle Music Park in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The ride, manufactured by the Swiss company Bolliger & Mabillard, opened to the public on April 15, 2008, under the name Led Zeppelin – The Ride as part of Hard Rock Park. Due to financial issues Hard Rock Park was sold and renamed after just one year. These same financial issues continued for the new owners resulting in the park shutting down in 2009. As of 2013, The Time Machine and the rest of Freestyle Music Park remain standing but not operating.

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or machine:
“There are many events in the womb of time which will be delivered.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“But a man must keep an eye on his servants, if he would not have them rule him. Man is a shrewd inventor, and is ever taking the hint of a new machine from his own structure, adapting some secret of his own anatomy in iron, wood, and leather, to some required function in the work of the world. But it is found that the machine unmans the user. What he gains in making cloth, he loses in general power.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
