I'm sure it was taken down to be repainted. Also the Coaster Connection and Ice Cream Zone signs were gone, I know they aren't open for Winterfest. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

Kings Island 2024 Food Reviews and Discussion
PKIVortex replied to SmartCat7162's topic in Kings Island
I would like to say I was impressed with one of the chefs at French Corner today. They took our order we got the fall special the tomato soup and the open fsged grilled cheese. Well apparently they were out of soup as apparently it's made in a different location. The chef came out to apologize and offered us free cheese cake for our wait. We did get our food finally but I appreciate him going above and beyond. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk -
They used to be an older FoF car that still had OTSR on it in there. FoF had 4 trains but only 3 were converted to lap bars. However only 2 trains are at the ride each season. They rotate the trains out each year. They will do rehab on the train that isn't on the ride they year during the season that way in the off season they only need to worry about rehabbing one train. They do the same thing for Adventure Express and now Invertigo since they received the train from Stinger from Dorney. (Previously Invertigo at Great America) Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

The King Cobra trains were sent off to Kings Dominion years ago. They used them for parts on Shockwave before it was removed Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

Dirty tables have been an on going issue for awhile now. I remember back in the day they are people assigned just for the flood patios. Cleaning tables emptying trash etc. It's frustrating when all you wanna do is sit at a clean table and enjoy your meal. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

I'm happy to announce that Adventure Express issues I reported last week have been fixed and the ride is back to two train operation. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

Makes you wonder if that's why one train isn't operating right now. This is putting additional stress on the trains and the ride. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

Anyone ride Adventure Express recently? They seem to be having issues again with one of the trains. Something also felt very different with the trims before the first lift. We barely slowed down and went around that unbanked turn at a faster rate of speed and it was very noticeable as you could feel the g foce. It hurt my back a bit. When we hit the lift you could tell it hit the lift a lil fast as it made a very loud noise almost a grinding type sound. My concerns were told to the park but in all my years riding it I even operated it, it had never done this. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

I'm really curious what is wrong with The Beast. It honestly seems it has had more problems since it got its new control system during the retrack. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

Wait times for The Bat should be much better now. It's back to two train operation. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

Snoopy's Soap Box Racers & Camp Snoopy Reviews
PKIVortex replied to KIghostguy's topic in Kings Island
It will be similar to Invertigo and Woodstocks Air Rail. They both also have Fast Lane and also only run one train. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk -
On the brake run for Beast, person in front of me pointed at Racer and told his friend that it was moved to KI from Coney. I couldn't help but laugh. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

Winter Chill Out 2024
PKIVortex replied to JubJester's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I tried within minutes of receiving the email and it said sold out. Tried again and it let me pick 930 then when I went to try and it pay got an error. So no Winter Chill Out for us either. Only the second one missed since 2016. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk -

Great episode like always. You forgot to mention when talking about the relocated coasters that the impulse coaster was relocated to Dorney. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk
