My cousin and I are contemplating sneaking in and riding Orion. [emoji16][emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Why not a record breaking B&M flying coaster? Promote it as Ohio’s only flying coaster like they did with Firehawk when it opened. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

At the time Congo Falls was installed, it was originally called Amazon Falls and Action Zone was a safari themed area. So back then it wasn’t really in a dumb location. The theme changed to an action movie area during the Paramount era and was named after the movie Congo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

According to Don Helbig the webcam will be down through the end of March. You can find his PSA here: https://KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/35959-psa-orion-live-stream/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You pretty much answered your own question. They are seeing this as just another job/paycheck. I’m sure one of them is saying that they used to like the ride. But a majority of the crew are just seeing an old steel structure that has to go. Just like when Riverfront Stadium was demolished, I’m sure it might’ve been the same thing. Memories of Reds/Bengals games, but in the end it’s just an outdated building/structure. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Can we quit with the whole “Kings Island owes us an explanation” B.S.? It’s starting to get annoying and making the rest of the coaster enthusiast community look like spoiled brats. Sheesh! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I must’ve not have gone that far back to look. I didn’t see any other good screenshots of the demolition. EDIT: Ok I finally saw the pics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It looks as though demolition has started. You can see the excavator where the boomerang element was. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/explore/live-video Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

All B&M track are fabricated at Clermont Steel Fabricators here in Cincinnati in Batavia. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That track you’re referring to could be the track that leads out of the station and to the lift hill. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There was never an extra piece of track. Vortex only uses the the two transfer tracks to operate as part of the final brake run. See the satellite image from Google Maps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The park just posted this an hour ago. It shows the whole station as of today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s the sunlight reflecting off of the track. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Was that you in the parking drop off I saw today? I drive a Toyota Highlander. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You do understand sarcasm, right? [emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is part of the discussion topic. We’re talking about the cranes and how we wouldn’t be able to operate one because of there size. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
