Klabergian Empire

I wonder how much fog juice the park goes through to keep all the fog machines going?

They don't mess around when it comes to that stuff. Ive seen it happen to several guests at the park.

Id say they are preparing to do the lift hill very soon. Maybe even starting next week!

Here is a thought: (what I mean by Coney Island closing is the rides are)

Blue Racer is running as of 10:10am Edit: hasnt run in several minutes, so it was probably a maintenance thing.

I looked at a recent tweet from Fox 19 and it appears that the eyes are on the 275 instead of the 265 platform.

Just took a look at the cams and they appear to not be working (at least for me).

I'd like to see what happens to the Python

It looks as if there are little skeletons climbing on the light trusses.

Probably when the ride itself is near or is completed.

The trailing lights that I believe are original but the LED lights are new. EDIT: Also, they are unloading more large supports again today!!!

My guess would be the lift hill.

Its a warm day at Winterfest today!

There seems to be a Banshee in the old Dinosaurs Alive area!

It appears they are moving more supports this morning.

Same. My first Racer ride was on June 6, 2008. Since that first ride, I have rode it a total of 259 times. The Racer will always be my favorite ride at Kings Island and I will keep on riding it until further notice. Also, something interesting I almost forgot to mention. The most times I rode Racer at once is 26 times in a row.

Oh yeah thats right. And I totally agree Racer needs its original colors back.

Yeah I agree. A lot of things in the park could use a repaint, including the Tower.

It took me awhile to find this, but here is a picture of the crane used to build the lift hill for Diamondback from November 2008. Even though the crane for Diamondback is going to be smaller than the one that will be used to build Orion, I think this gives a perfect idea of what kind of crane(s) will be needed to complete the coaster.

Oh ok. Also, the yellow crane is moving to take supports off the truck.

Idk if this was mentioned, but the transfer track has been rolled over to the rest of the track.

I don't think the will assemble the brake run before the lift hill because if you look where a lot of the pieces are, they are near or next to the brake run. I wouldn't be surprised if they assemble the lift hill before the brake run.

I think it is. They out the eyes on the 265ft level instead of the 275ft level. So we will have a better view.

Probably after the assemble the .......brake.....WAIT! Notice how all the pieces are pretty much where the brake run is; Maybe they will start on the lift hill soon!

I'm pretty sure they used the white crane moved the trasnfer track into place if I'm not mistaken.
