KIfan73 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 The number 2-9 is kind of popular today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upstop Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I'll bet if the barcode with the number is scanned is comes up: Bolliger & Mabillard Inc.Chemin des Dailles 31CH-1870 MONTHEYSWITZERLAND Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom497 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Ahh crap, it seems someone already beat me to it. I came to the forum as soon as I saw the tweet. I have a question. Do those barcode numbers vary for each project or for every segment of track? Because if the answer is the latter, what are the chances that the track segment that our friend posted on the forum (that was supposed to go to Hiede Park) are actually coming here? I believe that if the codes vary for each segment, Don saw that picture on here and just posted that to screw with us. Well, the first four digits of the "Job No" (6702) match the first four digits of the barcode number. The remaining digits (00029) can then be read as simply the number 29. So I would read the barcode as "job number 6702, piece number 29". Interpret that however you want. EDIT: Also, the 00029 can be extracted from the "Part No" at the bottom of the sticker, which further supports that interpretation. Also, "TE" = Track Element 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upstop Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Or more than likely when the bar code is scanned it will come up: Clermont Steel Fabricators 2565 Old State Route 32 Batavia, OH 45103 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom497 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Or more than likely for tracking it will come up: Clermont Steel Fabricators 2565 Old State Route 32 Batavia, OH 45103 I don't think so. The barcode has to be able to tell the transporter where the track/supports need to go. Maybe what you said would also come up along with the destination.

jcgoble3 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I'll bet if the barcode with the number is scanned is comes up: Bolliger & Mabillard Inc. Chemin des Dailles 31 CH-1870 MONTHEY SWITZERLAND I tried to use the barcode scanning app on my phone to scan the barcode off my computer screen, but it didn't work. Probably wouldn't have given me anything useful even if it had worked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcwizard13 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Don't want to crush some of your hopes and dreams, but remember Don reads these forums.

Oldschool75 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 It's a Red Herring, That was too easy. Don is probably chatting with someone in the office and is saying, "Hey want to see these guys get riled up. Watch this!" LOL 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joncars05 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Here is the sticker from the Flying Over the Rain Forest wing coaster in China.The number on top is not the same. jcgoble3 is correct. The Job number is the first 4 numbers while the last digits might mean something like track piece #3.Decode away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcwizard13 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 So we have pretty much ruled out that it is either B&M or a wing coaster.... Or both So it is definitely a B&M!?!?!?! This is getting very exciting!!! Just thought I should post the two posts that made me make the above post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be able to tell you from pictures on Heide Park Forums but they made the pictures private so you need an account to view the track pics. http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1318421#p1318421 This is the only picture of track I could find.

I believe that if the codes vary for each segment, Don saw that picture on here and just posted that to screw with us. Barcodes for B&M do vary for each project to a certain degree. WI = Wing Coaster, LC=Flying Coaster, IC2=Inverted Coaster, SC=Sitting Coaster, DM= Dive Coaster, FC=Floorless Coaster. Following that follows a letter going alphabetically (Heide Park is the 7th Wing Coaster, hence the code is WI-G). Some letters are skipped as they can look like numbers and B&M doesn't want confusion. The track piece that Don tweeted also has the WI-G code on it. This pretty much proves that the piece has absolutely nothing to do with our project. Because WI-G is already attributed to Hiede Park's Wing Coaster. Well played Don, well played.

fryoj Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 And if we needed more confirmation that the track in question was not headed to King's Island, the "Country of Origin" line doesn't appear on track pieces staying in the US. It's for international shipped pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glock703 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 When I worked at the park each ride had a 3 digit section number. Action Zone rides were the 600's. I'm not sure if SOB was 670 or not, but it did open in 2000 and is 29 (out of service code) forever. That was my thought when I saw the number and it would be pretty strange for a ride that replaces SOB to have those numbers as a barcode....almost paranormal...like a ghost or something. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
