We were counting track pieces. edit- because it's not apparent from the webcam
-
5 pieces left till we hit the brake run if the animation is accurate~ Thank you, Youtube slow down feature~
-
Glad we won't be getting any more false alarms that they were removing the temporary supports XD
-
Or don't :p -- I like BoddaH1994's postulation of our new GM wanting a better feel. I think that is probable. Vortex's station would definitely be noticed being next to antique cars, and WindSeeker. It makes sense to not want to have a vacant station in the midway, especially when it's an older building.

I too always dreamed DB's helix could have paths on both sides leading to The Beast! I like your concept! We'd just have to have a decision to demolish TR's building though; get ourselves a cool tunnel leading to The Beast :p
-
Because the Earth isn't flat :p
-
It has been taken out. They were magnetic ones I believe. See KI's official 2014 POV to see it. That's why there's a random concrete pad underneath; to use a lift for maintenance.
-
This is the reason I didn't try real larosa's for a VERY long time. Once I went to a proper restaurant, I really enjoyed it. Idk why they allow their name to be tarnished at Kings Island.
-
But maybe it doesn't last though. Banshee's was removed.. One can hope :p
-
I'm excited that the low-to-the-ground-non-inverting-zero-g-roll is finally finished! Those supports have been there for awhile :p
-
Very happy that they readjusted the cam so that the entire ride is in view rather than it cutting off the station area. Makes me wonder if it's manually adjusted and you can't for-sure tell where it's pointing lol edit - I'm aware I'm not the first to notice it; just been sitting on that desire for awhile :p
-
Lol when it was confirmed we were getting a giga, I thought it meant Vortex would get repainted (at least partially again), just like when DB came. Haha hahah..uhehwhehuhuh...

Work for the park and hope that you are blessed with an employee riding window :p
-
I'm gonna hate on Orion where I see fit, and I'm not going anywhere Looking forward to my first ride though! -- BTW we now have an additional piece of track on the turnaround. Only way back is toward the brakerun!
-
Came to see how the ride looked in the snow. Interesting that they're still doing a test run for Zephyr lol

Winterfest will be CLOSED tonight, December 16, 2019

Who knows, but I'm certainly just hoping it's not going to be a substantial setback.
-
I knew there was something weird about the train colors!

Holiday World 2020
calakapepe replied to Maverick44's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Same. I always thought its placement mean they wanted to expand the waterpark to both sides of voyage.. but I think Pilgrim's Plunge may have hurt that plan; and then it was clear with the addition of Thunderbird that there must have been a change in future expansion ideas. (This all just assumptions btw) -
Looks like they are in the process of putting the highest support up right now

Locals concerned that Kings Island is violating noise ordinances
calakapepe replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
It seems like a couple people didnt read the article. -
I think it would be realistic to expect something a little less heavy than 'the shed' for Orion. But, to expect it only in the line in that building before the stairs. I will be surprised if anything os notable in the station, let alone the actual ride beyond some audio. I would guess some sort of 'debriefing' sort of environment, talking about the impending meteor, thanking us for volunteering etc. I hope anyways. It'd be nice to bring show room queues back to the island :p

Orion Coming to Kings Island in 2020
calakapepe replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
I love Kentucky Kingdom's internet presence haha They've had interactions with even Universal because of their nonstop meme-age :p I also love that they acknowledge the roughness of T3 when they advertise that ride on Instagram :p -
So, the huge empty space where FH used to turn into the station, there wasn't anything in that location in the blue prints right? I just realized that's gonna be a huge empty space lol
