I wasn't going to add the secondary link. But on mobile through Tapatalk, you couldn't even see the image

It's clickable, the source is right there in front of you. https://twitter.com/DonHelbig/status/758374564107849730

Wait did they announce april 15 as opening day? I thought KI had opened on a Friday the past few years.
-
Yeah thats because of who RMC contracted for the job. A company that hasnt done that before with a long term track record. LSM technology launches wasnt a new technology. Maverick was my first awareness of it.. and many have come afterwards.. and B&M then did it, and theirs works fine. Drop tracks arent a new technology. They just need to hire the right people if a drop track were happening. And I choose to believe if someone guessed correctly, theyd simply have no comment, or would say someone said it right by guessing.

I'm expecting the bottom to be open after mention of daytime/ nighttime shed experience to be a little different. I don't think the main shed is until the smaller one where ther train will be slightly curved. That's where, if a drop track were on the table, could be. (Yes, on a slight turn).. but we know, unless we were deceived, that a drop track isnt right. Id still suspect a drop track if we hadnt heard that nobody has guessed correctly yet. I think many will be very surprised, and I kinda think people expecting a drop track will be disappointed because
-
Also, we unfortunately have to cross drop track off the list as no one has guessed correctly and drop track was guessed a long time ago, and it was also widely shared, so there's no chance PR missed that guess.
-
The only thing I'm fairly confident in in a guess is that whatever is in the shed, will finish with a blackout

Just have your ears plugged once you get to the bottom of the station~

Oh!, I never saw a POV with the beginning show for some reason till now! Thanks for bringing that to my attention. ****Having a wooden coaster END in a dark ride show separates it from all other coasters already

So the queue will go under the track just after the shed. According to the scale of the plans the "shed" is the secondary piece, not the storage shed that people immediately assume, and the whole train should barely be able to sit in that room, maybe peaking from the back slightly. Every row should have an unobstructed view of what's in the slightly extended part of the building. (if you didn't notice from the original render animation, the shed extends slightly further that the following tunnel that brings you back to the station) So things straight ahead as you enter, and things to your right has potential for effects. I hope the people getting off won't spoil the surprise by talking about what they just experienced. This is the kind of thing where having a separate exit station would've been handy in terms of first-time experience~

It's probably a vertical 16:9 like most smart phones

Having a dark ride portion at the end of a (wooden) coaster pretty much separates it from all other coasters already. [emoji14]
-
Either that, I'm getting that you think there might be two intentional experiences in there, similar to Verbolten's little show portion having three styles. I took that the shed won't be completely sealed from light. So, lots of underglow like is seen in typical tunnels.. I hope it won't be super humid in that shed... maybe that's why some light will spill in too, air vents towards the top

I didn't say the images were intended to be secret, just that I didn't know. But it's cool to see the queue plans line we got to see before Banshee was announced.

I don't want to post it because I don't know if it's allowed to be posted, but doing that serach "#whatsintheshed" on twitter looking at photos shows... well something!

Also we wont have to bake in the sun when the crews get a little sluggish (rightfully so) [emoji14]

Don't jix us!

How much Longer does Racer and Beast have before they break down?

People might have been less upset if a coaster removal (2 coasters) was due to a new coaster... but someone thought a water park expansiom was potatoe potahtoe Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk -

I believe every brand new coaster out of Cedar Fair recently does so [emoji14] Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk -
I can only think of Iron Dragon, Corkscrew(cp), Lightning Rod, Mystery Mine.. I think Loch Ness Monster has theirs underneath too... any others? Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

Hopefully there's as much hush hush as were the normal courtesy around when Star Wars VII came out... not that it was a huge surprise to me

There's definitely wood there on both paths! I don't think it's completed though. The side leaving rivertown seems more dense than the side coming back.

Hard to determine where in the ride that is
