According to this article, all WindSeeker's are closed. The article was updated 50 minutes ago so I wonder if the KI model is still operating even though it was open in the morning...any word from people at the park? http://www.thestate.com/2013/07/28/2886812/WindSeeker-malfunctions-at-carowinds.html

BREAKING NEWS: I was just taking a look at the Kings Island website and when you type in https://www.visitkingsisland.com/2014, you get the 404 error. Also, https://www.visitkingsisland.com/Banshee gives you the same error. Type in anything else and you get a redirect back to the homepage....look for the 404 error to be replaced with something soon!!!

You do realize that August 3 is Saturday...IMO, that's some pretty bad PR/marketing to announce a major attraction on the weekend.

Probably not as it wasn't mentioned in the article. I'm pretty sure the evac system if only used if the park cannot bring the carriage back down within a set time frame; I wouldn't be surprised if it would only be used in situations like Knott's were riders are stranded for 3 hours. Afterall, I believe it does take some time to get the evac system to the ride. I know at Canada's Wonderland, the evac platform is stored about 100-200 meters away from the ride, six employees have to push the giant platform to the ride, pull it around the tower, and then go up.

We figured out a long time ago that there was a spelling error when the signs were first printed out.

Just when they think they got the problems fixed with this ride after closing it in September....this happens. Biggest Mondial fail ever.

I'm gonna guess you sent Lance the same info that I did and got a response asking if the pictures were yours and if not, he needs permission. Am I correct?

A few pages back some of you were saying that having a water fountain with the ride name on it would be awesome. Well, meet Leviathan's plaza!

^I swear it didn't....oh well, looks like I was wrong (but still right about Leviathan )

A week? Your kidding right. Unless the park will announce it without warning one morning I highly doubt that (But this is just my opinion).

I see no label. Just page 11. There are two pictures in rows 4 and 5. @THE_BEASTmaster: I tried that too and it gives an error message.

We don't even know where its going...

^It wasn't on Gatekeeper, Behemoth, or Leviathan... http://www.cwmania.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=242&page=11 Leviathan's label EDIT: The two pictures for the label are in rows 4 and 5 of the gallery

X-Works refers to everyone, not just Cedar Fair...the labels used to say the park name but after enthusiasts kept spilling the beans, so B&M had to change the customer name so no one would find out.

^The code "IC2-J10..." IC2=Inverted Coaster. The number 2 is there because they ran out of letters to use for the second part of the code (they are at J for the second time now). The thing that worries me is that the label has the country of origin parameter....which is always seen on out of North American coasters...

^Click the grey boxs and save the picture...you can see them then.

THAT IS FOR AN INVERT!!! (IC2=Inverted Coaster)

^Great! Can't wait to see them!

^I don't believe it (and I don't think any one else will) until I see pictures.

^^Are you talking about a 4D or giga?

How do you know B&M is designing a 4D coaster again?

Actually, it was a "favor". Had Wonderland been built 2 miles farther away from Cedar Point, Wonderland would have been able to get a B&M Invert and not have to settle with the SLC. The roller coaster was in its early planning stages when Walter called up the former GM saying that he wouldn't be able to built the park an invert. Being a Wonderland fan (its my home park), do you know how fustrating it is not to have have what could have been a great invert all because of a 2 mile difference!?!?

If only we got a picture of the label on that track....(we would know the model and if is going to Heide Park). It wouldn't tell us 100% if its going to KI, but it would narrow down the possibilities.

^Trains are delivered after the announcement you know! I was talking about by just looking at the track.
