Such an exciting time of the year, things happening but yet we still have to wonder, hope and dream. A new woodie with lots of airtime elements and turns, in the woods or what remains of the woods, it is going to be a great addition to Rivertown for sure. I am 55 next week and I feel like a kid again when I visit Kings Island. I have to hold my composure going to the rides, the excitement is still deep in my soul. So with each new addition that Kinds Island presents, I am one happy camper!!

Even more interesting!

The footers for #KIProject2017 will run at most 33 feet deep. Check out @GlauserDan13's Tweet: https://twitter.com/GlauserDan13/status/754779955096129537?s=09

Is this a normal depth?

 Thanks for posting. That guy thinks RMC coaster and record breaking size. Where did you hear they are clearing area east of Diamondback?

Same guy posted some pics on twitter

The only pic I saw was of a couple of logs stacked. Stacked logs have already been shown in that area but they came from the cleared area. I think he's grasping at logs.

Does he work for Cedar Fair or just guessing?

 I agree. I didn't see any clearing at all in that picture.(east side of DB)   Also, I think he might be grasping at straws as far as this coaster being huge and record breaking. It may very well be, but it's way too early to tell. Even if his 33 ft. footers info is correct, I would imagine that is a pretty standard depth for coaster footers. Can't really tell the size of the coaster from that.

I get the impression The Interpreter has traveled all around the United States to ride roller coasters, only to say he likes maybe a handful of them.

I don't know him at all. Just read his tweets for the 1st time today. I was just asking people's thoughts on it.

RMC's current tallest Topper track coaster is Goliath at 165 ft.  Unless that's a super steep lift and first drop in the blueprints, I kind of doubt that claim.   By the looks of it, I don't see a length record being plausible either. 

Plus, he says "at most" 33 feet deep, not "at least". So one could be 33 feet deep and the rest could be 6 inches deep. It means nothing.

stupid double post.

Dude posted again, there's a truck in the forest EAST of DBack.

Petticoat Junction?

Those are some hot babes specially the last one..........um human that is!

Pictures of what is looking like a new access road.

(Pictures galore)

Great pictures I'm ready for a big announcement

 If they continue clearing areas East of DB then that opens up a lot more questions. Is it possible they are moving the train to the area between DB and The Beast?

In the eleventh picture down, the one showing the fork-lift looking thing between the I-beams, look across the lake and you will see the clearing where the coaster might cross the pond.

 

 

Maybe something like this for new train route?   Just guessing and speculating again.... If they don't move the train here, the area between DB and Beast might be a good area for another big log flume type ride. I miss the big log flume!

The terrain becomes much more hilly east and south of DB. So I doubt the train will be moving anywhere.

Good catch. Probably the "area of work" from the plans.

 Dollywood's train is quite long in hilly areas isn't it? Not out of the realm of possibility.

Dollywood uses powerful coal-fired steam locomotives...

Is this what you're talking about?

And King's Island's train is used to transport an abundance of folks to and from Soak City.  The fullest I ever see the train is when Soak City is closing, and the masses come back to the main park in the evening.

Yes. You can see it better in the picture with the "thing" between the beams... And of course while riding the train

 True,

 True, but my point is that this is not mountainous area or anything. Might need a couple tressels or bridges, but landscaping can accomplish a lot.

 The train route I made up goes right close to Soak City. Not saying they are moving the train. Just speculating.
