Yes I spotted it right away. I have club blood circled in the picture, but you clearly see the Wild Animal Safari fence in the background. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The girder truss would be for the train bridge. -

And as indicated previously. The plans that were acquired are only specified for a very small section. That section and details for that section are only required to be accurate on the drawing submitted to the City of Mason. CF could easily had the engineer give a "generic" layout for the overview portion. As it says in many parts of the drawing that the specifics pertaining to the ride will be provided by the ride manufacturer later. These plans are for the footing/concrete work. It could be any manufacture. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

True, but Storm Chaser is a redesign from RMC, not a ground up build. I guess we will wait and see. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Ok now for a curveball that has me confused. This was sent by a friend tonight. The pink marker us under DB right before it goes into the splashdown and the other white white I believe is in the helix or in front of The old crypt building. You can see the cleared out bushes with a white marker. Picture credit: Morgan Whitsel Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

I'm honestly shocked management is allowing these workers to even mention Son of Beast and new coaster in the same sentence. Now you will have the GP all screwed up. But a 200ft tall woodie is not out of the question. As long as short cuts are not taken during construction like the last one. Also with a steel structure it wouldn't be hard. But my guess is a lift hill between 125-135ft and a ride length between 3000-3200ft. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

I would look for more than just a coaster. I'll leave that to the park to unveil. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

I don't know, man. They put a lot of good information out there (this time) so they can't be that bad.Would you pick Buzz over TPR? I mean, that's the big two... Let's just say I used to be a staff member there, and the behind the scenes crap is beyond idiotic. If y'all wonder why I can pull up info on coasters/parks so quickly, its because I did loads of research being a news and editorial writer over there as well as writing a few rides and park pages (all of which have been changed and/or removed since my departure). As Forrest Gump would say- That's all I have to say about that. Ha.I received a permanent ban today on TPR for the offense of posting "Perhaps calling people stupid and idiots is not helpful to the discussion. I rarely find them persuasive." In one post and that was it. Some unnamed entusiast from Orlando was ranting about the WDW alligator incident. Everyone who disagreed with him was a moron, stupid or an ******* idiot. So he deleted my post, banned me and continued to rant. Then later this afternoon all the posts in that thread after the incident were deleted. Me thinks someone's wife got home and wasn't to happy. Who hasn't Slobby banned? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Decoding Episode II: Rivertown 2017 and the Falling Trees
Oldschool75 replied to jcgoble3's topic in Kings Island
I've seen more than one layout taking this right over top of significant portions of WWC. This one takes the track on top of the big round-table? Not saying it isn't possible, but something just doesn't seem right. That's a huge span to deal with via wood construction. Google earth is not 100% accurate. I'm thinking that part of the track will actually be down where the water is, remember there is water on both sides of the train tracks there Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

tee hee heeRemember that layout could very well be fake. As many have said, it looks a lot like Prowler. Seems very easily leaked in the drawings. The plans only specify for that very small section. So the rest of the layout could be a decoy. They are only required to have the section noted for work to be correct. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Sorry you're way off. That north indicator does not refer to overview of the ride.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Then why would they insert that on a blueprint plan? Doesn't that offer reference to the work site? I do believe you are wrong.Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk So you are debating with someone who has the plans, plotted out the coordinates and knows the orientation of the coaster; and you only have seen a small tidbit? SmhSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Uuhm....Yep! I guess I am! SO What??? You're "da man with the plans!" Big Whoop! Quit prancing around on us little people just because you know something more than the rest of us. I'm having fun speculating as much as the next guy. I'm enjoying this while I can. So tired of you BIG SHOTS walking on the rest of us who don't have insight. If anything, you should just sit back and have a laugh at our expense, but NO, you have to point out you're the BIG MAN ON CAMPUS and act like you have something to prove. You're not raining on my parade. I'm just calling it as I see it. Maybe you don't know...and a Bluff is all you have to hold on to. I'm here to have fun and enjoy everyone's posts...right or wrong!!! Anyone who knows me, and it's few on this site knows I'm a super duper guy with respect and caring heart for others. I'm not here to start anything, just enjoying the ride until the big announcement. I don't bluff. And I'll pretend to be bigger above anybody else. I was just trying to guide those that didn't have the plans. Those who wanted to be surprised you can think this guy for spoiling. For those of you who have been nice, and not a grumpy sour puss; check your in box. -

Doesn't have to do with power or inadequacies. It's called time is money. My time is valuable. I don't give it away free. I've tried to provide clues for people, but everyone wants to give up and have it handed to them. It's called the real world. Things are not served on a silver platter. If you want something bad enough you will work for it. Since everyone wants to be negative Nancy today, I shall cease to provide clues. Good luck, and I guess you will find out at the announcement the true details. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Here's a hint plot N1 and N3 Of course depends on what coordinates you want to use in the plans. There is another page that have coordinates that plot right behind Timberwolf. Not sure what those are for, and 1 plot out in the field by Banshee. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
