Some setup has begun. but something as simple as lights, would be done closer towards Haunt, and most is done starting 1st week of non daily operation. It could be something; maybe not. Could be something with the Kicks Cancer promotion. Either way, I don't think there will be anything big, otherwise the media usually would get some kind of invite.

Well Hulk is green, I did see purple track outside of CSF today. I will post a picture shortly. Wonder if they will incorporate purple with green?? **edit Nevermind, forgot Mako has purple track. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

Cedar Point Analyst Day
Oldschool75 replied to thekidd33's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
The first 10 years were great, but as you get older and the coaster gets older; you just find yourself disagreeing with each other. Lol. Time for something new, smooth, and more enjoyable. Vortex will be 29 years old next year. It's worn out literally. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -

Let append this here Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -
They care enough to ask if the Antique Cars and the Monorail are still at the park, so the nostalgia factor is there... But think about it in business sense. If these people are asking if those rides are still there, then they are not really generating income for the company, and haven't been for the last 10-20 years. So why bring those things back? Cater to the ones that bring in the Benjamins, and not the Jeffersons Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

I'm thinking "this is not the coaster you're looking for" and is a diversion for a coaster going in where many have "stood" ????? Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -

No url? Either way, very easy to spoof a webpage. With certain developer tools you can change a website locally and take a picture and say hey look what I found. Just pointing out a fact and what has been done in the past. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -

On a sidenote some of the trailers are now gone from CSF. Not the trailers containing track but the normal semi trailer which probably includes hardware. Also looks like Mako track/supports are starting to emerge Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -

As Jeff Gramke put it, "they're all steel coasters really." (Coasterstock 2015) They all ride on steel track. -

The track is not very big, and the chain return is in track not below like a dive coaster. I will try to post more pictures later. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -

There may have been more lift hill pieces as they were right inside the bay, but it was dark and could not clearly see them. But this is definitely not Dive track. It's different than Baron, and different than the older dive track. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -

And the trucks are loading **edit adding what I saw I found 7 lift hill sections, and using my distance app and comparing the piece next to the flat bed. They are about 45-50ft section and there are 7 of them. 7x45=315' 7x50=350' This coaster is a GIGA!!!! **edit again Sorry but this is a picture of my display on my Nikon. I will upload a better quality image later. This is from one of the blue supports. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.
