    Does anyone know who makes track for Intamin then? Just a curious question not to get far off topic. 

     

    Edit - I know everyone hates Intamin...just wondering where their track might be made.

    Last I heard, it was still manufactured in Europe.

     

    Wow, They ship all steel track over that's crazy!! Maybe saving money? I would think that would cost more?

     

     

    Well since Intamin hasn't built a coaster in the US since 2012, they are saving quite bit by making track over there. 

     

    Let's hope that changes!!! I feel like maybe they are going back and revamping they was their coasters work. We will see the ride of Intamin again!

  2. I am currently on the train. They are setting up the podium on the back side of the Crypt Building. I will try to get a picture from the WWC path.

    Would they really have the announcement back there? Does this mean they have use the Crypt building for something in 2017?? 

     

    EDIT - On the webcam you can see a bunch of stuff to the left of the crypt building!!??

    I heard that Diamondback will be closing early. Not sure if it's true or not though.

    Closing early, as in closing before the park does on July 28th.

    I highly doubt they would close the biggest coaster in the park prior to closing day. Any work that would need to be done would wait until the end of the season.

    He was talking about only on Thursday not for the season.

    CSF used to be just the North American plant for B&M, but now they're manufacturing and shipping all their rides worldwide too.

     

    So I guess then Intamin would do the same just from across the pond. Ok right on. Was hoping they were having the steel work done here so we could keep an eye on that factory as we do at CSF.

     

    EDIT - I am not sure what I see in that picture? Maybe the announcement will take place inside the Crypt if it rains? haha

    How will anything ever be a secret if just any joeschmo can walk in and get the plans haha. Oh well

     

     

    EDIT - It looks kinda small by the blue print imo.

    Well the layout is not in detail, only the "area of work". I do not see why there cannot be revisions of the original plans submitted for approval.

     

    Yeah, I guess they could make changes but then Ki would need to take those to the city again?

     

     

    Side note.....way off topic and I am sorry but I am reading the Carowinds forums. They are all thinking Vortex will go floorless and also getting 5 classic flat rides. I called a number today that  Carowinds posted that is supposed to give hints and something that is dealing with a  mayor. No idea. Sounded lame. I can't see  them getting anything major after Fury. They had a big argument over the cost to repave their parking lot haha just FYI no need for discussion unless you want to reply lol I don't wanna make anyone mad that I went off topic but thought it was funny.

    Does everyone agree this is going to be a wooden coaster? Are we for sure those "leaked" plans were 100% really submitted to the city?

    I personally went to the city and took a look at them. Even posted my own pictures in this thread.

     

    This is something they will just bust out and show you? I find that kinda hard to believe to be honest. No offense!!!

     

    Any plans filed with the city are public record, meaning that the general public has the legal right to access and view them. Several people from here have been to city hall to obtain copies of the plans.

     

    That's just crazy to me. How is there any possible way there is no information about the Manuf. or any thing. Its just an outline or the coaster and that is it? Man, to be honest I hope this coaster looks better then what that is showing. ugh o well
