According to the blueprints, L16 is the base of the spine on the drop-side.

Absolutely, I define the “lift spine” as the entire system of large box beams that make up the arch from the base of the lift hill to the drop. 

I can get aerial pics of your house,if you would like.  :-)

Can you get a fly by shot of my car down 71?

Do you have a “nice camera”? If so can you zoom in on the blue track to verify if they are MCT or not?

I don’t think an iPhone is a nice camera I am sorry but I will still try!

How about a pair of binoculars! If you see MCT, let us know! We trust you! (Pictures would be great too) 

This is probably completely irrelevant to KI and the Giga but has anybody seen the billboard on 75-N right before the Norwood exit that is just a black screen with blue dots all over? That's all it is. It's been like that for about 2 weeks now. It almost looks like the night sky with all the stars. IDK maybe it's nothing but it could be something. Maybe a teaser of some sort? I will take a picture tonight on my way home.

Ok!!

I really don’t know if this helps, but you can clearly make out some blue track in this video around the 0:53 second mark!

 

I really wish I would have taken my good camera and telephoto lens. I just didn’t want to wait until I got home to post pics so I only used my phone. Hopefully someone else with a good camera can drive over in the next few days and confirm the blue track is for KI.

Those X-Base bathrooms are coming along quite nicely. It appears they could be a bit breezy though.

Got a closer view, thanks to Blue Racer exit platform. 

^Even the equipment is red and blue. I wonder if one of them runs backwards.

i'm surprised they went to CSF. They are as bad as we are.

Not surprised about this article because I informed John Matarese about a week ago on Facebook that footer work began.

What's so bad about that video?

@BruceWayneWins If only you knew John's obsession with this...

Nothing wrong with the video. Again, its John...

I wonder if John will walk back there and get pics of the track tags? 

@fryoj He would be the one to get away with it. Lol

I’m actually getting mad. When will Kings Island drop teasers ????!!!   >:(

Honestly, there are not many local news stations that go as far to get documents from the city and go to a rollercoaster manufacturing plant to put the latest buzz about an amusement park on the news...

Pictures from today (Jun 6) right around noon.
Rode on The Beast this morning and there is only about 20ft of woods between The Beast track and the CLEARING for the new coaster.  There was a bulldozer parked at the edge of the clearing and it was VERY easy to see from The Beast.  The actual supports and track will of course be a little further away, but it's much closer than it looks from overhead plans.

Thanks for the pictures everyone!!

Hello? All I hear are crickets here...
Another low-res picture. Zoom in if needed. 
 

Thanks man, love aerial photography!!

Is there any way to tell whether the spine of the track is painted a different color with what we have to work with right now?
