KI FANATIC 37

Yeah, your right. I saw a reverse POV from yesterday and there were two trains on the transfer track brakes and brakes before the station before and after the ride. This could have been that one time but that is what Ive noticed from the videos from yesterday.

Given the fact that SOB's station still stands, I bet there's a more than good chance that it will become the station for the new ride, since it's a lot cheaper to touch up the station than build anew. CF is not going to keep a station just for Haunt. It was meant to serve a short term purpose until its new main purpose can be utilized much like The Bat station became Vortex's station. I do agree with you that that would make sense and save money; but, that station was made for a wooden coaster, not a steel coaster. They would probably have to do work around it to make the track fit properly. And, what if the trains were larger than the SoB trains and didn't fit? Also, from the work that we have seen so far, it really looks like the queue, station, and transfer track will be located where Thunder Alley previously stood.

Im actually very interest in how they will use the terrain back there for the coasters advantage (if in fact it is a coaster). They could do a lot of cool stuff that would add a lot to the ride.

This gets more and more exciting everyday! I absolutely cant wait for the rest of this season. Leviathan II Leviathan II!! ITs also very good for the site! We have gotten a ton of new members lately!

Its the same thing that was mentioned above, the Pterodactyl statement.

I would like a blue coaster too.

Are you kidding? Griffon is one of my favorite rides of all time! Even though its short it is very thrilling! Even though I would prefer other styles more, I would love a Dive Machine!

Even though B&M is my favorite and I think it will be a B&M, I am really hoping for a Intamin Blitz coaster (I think that's what Maverick is). I love coasters like Diamondback, Millennium Force, and Leviathan, but Kings Island needs a Maverick style coaster. If you want to know what I think it will be, I think it will be a Leviathan type B&M. But, Im hoping for a Maverick type Intamin Roller coaster.

What are the shapes of Diamondbacks?

Thats a great diagram. That looks spot on. But dont you think it would make more sense to flip where the station and the train house thing would be. Just so its easier to get in line and stuff. And somebidy mentioned how this could be a Dinosaurs Alive type thing . They didnt start teasing us with that until like two months before the season started.This is really early to start a project. I'm not saying it's a coaster. (even though I think it is), it's just something really big.

I am very biased on this because I am rooting for a large Intamin coaster or a Leviathan type B&M coaster. If they were to remake a SoB type ride, why would they need to tear down TA and have footers over by TA. Wouldn't they just use the same station and area for the "upgraded SoB"? As said before, they're so many idiots out there that would say that the new ride killed people it would instantly have a bad rep. If i were in charge of this whole project, I would want to replace SoB with another large coaster. In 2009, Son of Beast and Diamondback were the two largest coasters in the park. It would make sence to replace it with a larger coaster.

I forgot those queue lines were even there. I don't think I've seen those open since 2009. You instantly know its a crowded day when you see those switchbacks open.

Everyone's talking like these footers are for supports for the track. Due to the placement and how close they are to the walkway, I really think these are for a station.

Kings Island put the following on Twitter this morning: "Participants in this morning's Color Me Pink 5k will enjoy the behind the scenes views along the course." Could this be talking about the area behind the fence? Did anyone run it that could clarify this statement?

Oh man! I can already tell this is going to be a great season!

As long as their is a new coaster along that path, I could care less where it goes!

It will go away when they stop making money off of it. And honestly, if I was there on a crowded day, I would buy the plus because I don't spend a lot of money at the park anyway. I pay $90 a year for my pass and u normally only eat one meal while I'm there. I would much rather pay for a plus pass then wait in line all day and not have a good time. It just varies on how some people like to spend their money.

^Same for me. It was incredibly cold and windy that day! One of my friends I went with was wearing shorts too!

I think he was just joking guys. Relax.

Except that the Terms of Service require posters to use proper spelling and grammar. It's the very first item on the page. If you still have a problem with people correcting others' spelling, take it up with the admins. We're just enforcing the TOS as they stand. But really?? Come on? Its not like he is writing his essay for the SAT or anything. He is on an online forum. Its not that bad. I find it just as annoying when Im trying to see what people are talking about for future plans for the park and its hidden by people correcting the way someone writes. Let it go. Not trying to be rude to you, just stating my opinion.

Now come in guys. Lets not be pointing fingers and arguing at everyone. Everyone helps and contributes to this site in their own way. If you do not like the way someone contributes than you could point it out politely. And it's definitively not worth leaving the site if you are just not a fan of one person.

Either at Diamondback or The Beast or somewhere in between the two. I spend most of the time there

She sent me one as well. I was like you know what, Im just going to delete this...

Im looking forward to the pictures that Don or Greg post of the site after everything is gone(hopefully they will), debris, footers, everything. That will be exciting!
