SFKK new park map
And how exactly do you know nothing is wrong with the coaster? Terpy, wondering... I did ride twisted twins, but only one side was working that day. That end of the park seemed ran down. It has been 3 years so maybe they are improving the area? IMO is seems they are land locked on building anything big.

HUMM!! I wonder if that was planned? Are there other light on in the park? I am in Indy, so I dont know what the park is expected to look like at night in the off season.

This is a really long maintenance outage, time stamp on page says 7:10 AM and it is now 7:30 PM? I still feel when that cam comes back up there will be trains on the track.

We are not going to be able to see the nice shiny trains when they get them parked in their new home with the roof on. It is going to be intersting how they integrate the surrounding buildings and Beast entrance with DB.

The reason being that there will be an access road traveling underneath that portion of track. What does an access road have to do with support beams that are welded inside the frame of the structure? My guess is that the engineers only called for supports on the one side, do to needing extra support for the transfer point of the trains from one track to another. No need to pay for more steel and installation if not necessary per the engineers.

Scobby had some eye surgery. Glad he took care of that!

What would you like changed to KI in the next five years?
Yes, I hope so for you are right, you appreciate the park so much more when it is well maintained.

PTR 2002
No, but before they added Waterworks they had a pool.

I always want to clean after myself, so they dont have to hire more cleaning crew and in turn raise the cost to get in.

I actually went and bought a new camper in Janurary of 05 I think? The year they closed the camp ground. My wife was pregnant and I wanted her to be able to ride the tram back to the AC'ed camper to rest. I was furious when I called to make reservations at the camp ground and they said they were closed. I was on the phone with KI for 1/2 day complaing to the highest manager they would let me talk too about the camp ground. I asked them if they wanted to buy a camper. They offered me a dinner the next time I visited the park...

Well, I am willing to put up with a napkin on the ground for an extra few hours before a ecology staff can get around to cleaning it up, than having to pay Disney price to get into the park!! That is reason I have only been to Disney once in my life. CF I believe, has spent some money to help keep KI clean. There is a breaking point on where to spend you money. Mainitain rides and build new ones, or have a cleaning person that can clean up a used cup left on the ground in 15 seconds of being dropped.

Looks like they are adding a platform with guard fencing on the inside of the track to me? I might be wrong though!

You can still go just have to join ACE or other clubs invited. I barely made it in time. I actually joind to go to the Winter Blues party myself, but once I got in and stared researching I had missed ticket sales and everything. Was not meant to be I guess.

I am wondering if that is entry and exit or just one. Not sure how the line would work if you got off and on the same side of the station.

Not sure I understand the question. You have to walk the Coney Mall midway to go to XBase. But once you get under The Racer I feel it is a "new" section. Plus the miday in X base is just not that long right now unless they add more miday beside racer to get to another ride?

I emailed KIC and they said KIC was invited and they are working on a way to prove we are members of KIC to be able to go. No cost involved.
