Most giga stations aren’t that big (considering how the trains aren’t particularly long). Also it doesn’t really need to be wide considering there will almost certainly be a ride separator keeping the number of people in the station limited.

Here’s a photo from today’s behind the scenes tour!

The photos are just going to get sadder and sadder

I sure hope so, some times the rides I get on that ride are painfully unbearable.

Parks usually don’t add a new coaster for their anniversary. I’m assuming we’ll see a new coaster in 2023.

Favorite Park that isn't Kings Island?

Hershey is just a great well rounded park, great rides, great atmosphere and especially great food. The new Hershey Chocolate Town will only elevate the guess experience. Can’t wait to visit next year! -
I get so much dread whenever I see a new post in this thread, I’m not looking forward to the inevitable post where we start to see Vortex come down.

Last Saturday it rained and the park was a complete ghost town, doubt it’d be much emptier then it was that night.

I would love to see backlot retheme however theming it to a junkyard wouldn’t be that good imo. My main gripe with this coaster is how ugly it is especially for a coaster that’s in the middle of the park. Theming it to a junkyard wouldn’t do a lot to fix this issue imo.

I think those are just supports that are laying in the ground until they need to be put up. They’re not actually supporting the ride
-
They could expand the bottom section of the ride house if it was necessary, I don’t find it to be impossible. However with the recent direction Cedar Fair has been heading with theming I’d suspect they’d just want to start over with a new station and new queue house.

The Beach Waterpark is for sale!

Does anyone know if Kings Island has a non-compete agreement with Great Wolf Lodge? I know they were partial owners at one point. -
I’d guess it will get busier toward Christmas however weather also plays a huge factor in how busy it will be. Yesterday for example the park was a ghost town because of the rain.

Friday they let everyone in about half an hour early, yesterday they didn’t.

Vortex Is Leaving After This Fall Season
Ben43065 replied to THE_BEASTmaster's topic in Kings Island
Below that area there used to be a queue house that was used during The Bat but not during Vortex.
