    Hmmm. When I zoom in, all I can see is "Obi-Don!"

    Nothing to see here. Just some trees, and a few engineers and stone carvers working on an 80' statue... move along 

  • Hi guys!  Long time follower, first time poster.  Just wanted to finally join in on the fun!  This is the first season I've had a pass in probably more than a decade!  I grew up in the area but I mov

Hints:

 

1. "Stop" in the name of love

2. Watch for falling trees. Tree hugging.

 

It must be a pink valentines themed coaster. Called Cupid. (Oh and it'll be built by Arrow.)

 

The above post is satire. :P

 

^ Even if it isn't for KI (which it most likely isn't) lime green track would be awesome!!!

I feel like somebody is going to bring up the green Intamin track because of this...

Green intamin track?

CSF is a B&M Plant.

 

There isn't even a POINT in trying to make an Intamin joke. Since every Point Intamin has at some point had issues to result in FUN never getting another Intamin.

I spy three different color tracks. The yellow (we know where it's going), the Gray, and Lime Green.

I'm also quite sure that the green paint is like a primer kind of thing. Cause I thought I've seen that kind of green before, but I could be wrong.

I agree.

I'd get closer but don't want to trespass. [emoji41]

You could always go to the office and ask if it's ok to take pictures. ;-)

That is very true. [emoji3]

There is a video on B&M track fabrication at Claremont Steel. It's about 10 minutes is actually very interesting. Not sure hot to post videos on here though.

It's probably going overseas. Hopefully... That color looks bad for KI IMO.

Can't be for KI. This is a Cowboy Coaster, remember?

B&M could try their hand at a cowboy coaster, now that they have a launch system. I do believe this will be going overseas though, seems to early for something within the same state.

^Agreed

Perhaps KI might get their first B&M with the top of the track a different color from the bottom one, such as on Fury and Mantis

A crappy prediction: KI is going to get the world's first giga wing coaster. That would be fun, but it'd probably sacrifice speed. Not even sure if it would be structurally sound.

Those track pieces won't be for KI. Banshee's first support pieces started showing up at the plant in late July. Track didn't start show up until August sometime. And at that point we had the majority of the footers poured. Anything you see showing up there now is probably going overseas.

Just rode DB. More clearing. Between the hammerhead and Beast this foot print just got bigger.

On another note the Eiffel Tower was just a solid lime green. A color I've never seen. Also check out this years cup colors. Hmmm

I'm suddenly a lot more interested in what's going on. And also leaning more towards coaster again.

EDIT: let's just say hypothetically, this green track is a giga for KI. Production is starting extremely early yes, but if the coaster is huge, would they start this early? When did Fury's track start showing up?

I don't think we'd see it any sooner. KI has nowhere easy to store it without taking up valuable parking area. CSF isn't going to store it for them and they wouldn't want to store it offsite if they didn't have to. They'd coordinate the schedules so that when the pieces would start being ready shortly before they were ready to start putting them up.

Red and green cups? Green B&M track? This means Kings Island is getting a Christmas themed cowboy coaster! Holiday World has some fierce competition coming their way!

I think this thread has gone to plaid and has divided by 0. 

 

Bad dialogue- check.

that would be orange; not red.

I assume it's easy to see? And I assume the best place to see is right before the hammerhead? I'll be looking closely this Wednesday when I go back. Sounds like a big area though. Hopefully it won't make The Beast less secluded.
