Looks like they still have a lot of rocks to place if you notice the pile up by the storage platform. http://www.kiDiamondback.com/public/latest...ge&chip=556

True, that queue is very nice. These look like the same ones from The Crypt?

Vortex Gets a New Paint Job
I remember in October during haunt they were painting the train storage area roof as you started up the stairs, but did not think they would repaint the whole track this year for it just got painted like 2 to 3 years back did it not? Edit: I might be thinking of the supports not the track?

Kings Island PTR From July
I loved the DB splashdown pics. I hope some grass grows back in soon, that will make DB look really nice!

Does anybody else think Delirium will have new restraints
No threats Terpy! Although, have you ever been gone? Back on topic though, I think they would have only replaced restrains that need replacing. So I would say there might be a few more new ones, but not all of them.

Can this be right? Only TWO more weekends until Diamondback?!?
Yes, it has gone fast. I just hope the summer does not go so fast that I don't make it to the park as much as I want. See ya in a few weeks!

Committed to Every Ride Open at SFA Every Day--Mark Shapiro
I don't see how that promise can be kept. No matter how well maintained something is, it is bound to break down from time to time.

Diamondback Construction Thread (Updated 3-19-09)
I was watching the parade with my mother when this happened. I got up and was flipping out because of how funny I thought it was. Then I had to explain to my mother what a "Rick Roll" was. What happened to the red hair? I thought it was a gag not the real Alfred.

First looping coaster?

Indianapolis PTR
That is weird, LOS being a waist to taxpayers is all I hear about. Most conversation and what the news reports are "We just tore down the RCA Dome, and we are still paying on it. It went over budget, we did not need a new building." I also hear they are having issues with upkeep and renting it out. All I hear is the negatives? I will say though it is a nice looking building and it put the RCA Dome to shame, but it is gone now.

The Beast POV - old film

Indianapolis PTR
Thanks for the PTR. As you know by my screen name I live in Indy, but never have gone down town and enjoyed the scenery.

Diamondback Construction Thread (Updated 3-19-09)
I bet they will plant some trees. The off ride rendering videos show a lot of trees as you ride. Just will take another 5 to 10 years for them to be as big as they are in the video. EDIT: Just noticed I got promoted to KIC Junky!

Kings Island Dreams
I had a KI dream the other night. The park was not very busy and a lot of the rides had no operator. Drop Tower was called Drop Tower, but was like Double Shot at Indiana Beach except it was totally red. There were no ride attendants at DT and my buddy and I were looking at how it worked. There was no one else around and we were then standing in the seat looking behind them to see what was on the other side of the seats. The ride came on by itself and we were taken up and dropped with us standing in the seats with no restraints. Neither one of us fell out of DT nor were we hurt. Park security saw it and thought we started the ride ourselves. I was explaining what happened when the dream ended? What do you make of that?

It would be cool to know the cost comparison for today on the same exact construction work.
