^^^They are rigging the top of the vertical loop just behind the batzel. Looks like the orange and yellow lift has also moved into place for the final lift of the loop.

With 25 more track sections to go, and the last one arriving on sight tomorrow, I'm going to guess 2/6. Barring any long weather delays of course.

Sorry for the double post. The picture went missing on the last try: I would think that the close-up webcam is likely covered during touchy lift operations just in case something unfortunate were to occur. King's Island wouldn't want disturbing images to circulate on the internet forever due to accidents caught on the webcam.

If the logo were in cursive, the kids couldn't read it. Common Core has killed that sort of penmanship. Half joking aside, what sort of cursive do you mean? I'm intrigued.

'Lorem ipsum, etc.' has been standard filler text for a long, long time. Don't read anything into that. This layout is probably the basic framework for the pages to come, but using old data to make sure the layout and links all work properly. The only real work I see here that won't be used later are the spoofs of 'The Bat' that would not take terribly long to produce. The blueprints, on the other hand, would have taken a insane amount of work for an outsider to produce, and quite a large amount of work even for an insider. My feeling is that the prints are real, and this early release of 'The Bat' is a little silt to muddy the water for a few days.

Although, if they are under-engineered, they might build the ride, run a few test runs, and then find out they have to take out an inversion or something. That definitely would be bad.

Maybe so. They announced they are announcing a 'record breaking attraction'. With all the drainage work, they could be announcing the world's fastest flushing toilets.

That is true for the brake run and the two single supports under the last turn, but everything else in that picture has two or even three footers for each support point on the track. Also, in the pages and pages I've read here, I haven't seen anyone mention that the footers for the storage shed show that there will be 3 trains on this B&M.
