May 21, 201610 yr Hmm. Interesting... Maybe the new WWC entrance goes through there. Would make great photo ops. [emoji23] Obviously joking.
May 21, 201610 yr still believe that it will be a giga. This idea is as if you were standing on the platform for the railroad train. The coaster station sits to the right of the train station and on the other side of the tracks. Queue line begins where the old funnel cake stand used to be and crosses the train tracks where WWC crossing bridge was. A new underground tunnel will allow riders to walk safely under the train tracks(also built to withstand more years than the wooden bridge for WWC. although it was replaced in spots it was still old enough to go) and will be disguised with the usual Rivertown "mining" theme. The coaster pulls out of the station to the right (towards the waterpark) and a quick left turn sends the cars into the lift hill. The lift hill goes up over the right side of WWC(reason for the clearing in those areas and the markers seen on the train ride update videos located after the bridge by WWC. Parallel to the building used to store the trains) cresting to the right of the train in the clearing after the bridge. It dives deep into the valley and rolls into some record breaking elements in the space between the waterpark and The Beast. Dipping down in between the 4th and 6th hill of Diamondback, we see the classic double helix in the space directly behind the tomb raider building. Passing back under the DB hills making a right turn, dipping and diving through the trees, into a splashdown(a revamped overflow pond for WWC) before pulling back into the station. This is just my thought/desire of what will go into that space. For all we know it could be CAMP SNOOPY, a campground INSIDE the park. Until we get more clues my mind will run wild! Feel free to pick this idea apart. I know its coming...

May 21, 201610 yr If this is a coaster this looks like it could use the terrain really well.... Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk
May 21, 201610 yr That's a great place for a campground, and the road to get to it is already there...
May 21, 201610 yr For all the conspiracy theorist. On the chalkboard out front, one of the 100 reasons to buy a gold pass for 2016? Project 2017. As Terp would say. Have FUN!
May 21, 201610 yr Pretty sure anyone can add almost whatever to that chalkboard. Sent from an Indestructible Phone
May 21, 201610 yr I was coming to mention it too. There's no basket of chalk out today, so presumably an employee added "project 2017".
May 21, 201610 yr I thought about that. Because I know Cedar Point counts their, but Kings Island had never really advertised it openly as a coaster that I knew of.. Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk
May 21, 201610 yr Awe man! The most knowledgeable person (other than Beast Gal and Terp) isn't there. Sent from an Indestructible Phone
May 21, 201610 yr During The Beast tour. Random guest: So how many acres is the 2017 project gonna take. Don: Well, we can put a couple picnic tables out there and have a place for employees to eat lunch. Best answer yet.
May 21, 201610 yr Yeah I liked his answer lol. A few good questions was asked, glad I got it on video!
May 21, 201610 yr Yea, I'd like to see the that. I took some pics, but my phone is so old it almost is in black & white. Literally.
May 21, 201610 yr I'm no forensic handwriting expert, but it looks like all the things on the chalkboard were written by the same person.
May 21, 201610 yr Anyone take the railroad tour yet? Don't think so. It's only scheduled for Sunday morning.
May 21, 201610 yr Wait green as in green Intamin track.......sorry but I had to. Kings Island teases their upcoming attractions better then anyone imo. I can't wait to get back to the park now that there is more then just markers. edit: By the way I think we have seen the last of Intamin at CF parks for a while. Just had to make the joke.

May 21, 201610 yr Mr Speigel had a hidden tease. His slides showed the timeline of major additions to KI. 2017 was there and had the "watch for falling trees" sign. He didn't mention anything about that. But quite funny. His boots and handkerchief here green. Didn't match anything he was wearing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
