FoF launch, The Beast helix and the SOB near miss on The Bat.

They started to work on the new paint. https://twitter.com/KingsIslandPR/status/398570502437867520

If they do that, I can die happy!

WOW!! Great job!

I know he didn't say it, I'm just jugging by the pictures, that's all.

WOW! Great find Vortex! It looks like it's at arrow's testing grounds.

I'm a SOB fan and my answer is a big no! Plus they aren't even the same type of coasters.

The funny thing is when they annouced this, AC/DC's Back in Black started to play in my head.

They put some tracks on for the lift loop exit this morning.

They're lifting another track for the dive loop.

Another piece of track went on this morning.

here's the trucks unloading some supports.

I'm just going off of images from bing maps so I could be wrong but cars from Son of Beast's original trains are behind Dinosaur Alive.

Looks like the last support for the first drop is going up now.

I notice those and some tracks but I think it's for the back half of the ride (batwing, second virtcal loop, ect.). I could be wrong.

Part of Slingshot is blocking it but it looks like another piece of track is about to go on.

You forgot the two A-pillars at the bottom of the first drop.

They're not topping the lift just yet, the last piece is still on the ground.

Looks like they're gonaa put more of the catwalk for the lift in today.

Yea, I notice them when I was at the park Saturday. Anyways, their putting the third column of the last lift support in place. I bet they'll top up the lift hill by tomorrow.

they're putting another column up now. edit: darn, DB beat me to it.

I think the original track layout wouldn't work with a wooden coaster no matter what kind of support it had. If I was gonna make it wooden, I would have RMC design it very differently, use a steel support like you did but have the lift hill between 170-180 feet and have the first drop over 200 feet into a lower piece of land or underground tunnel and some over banked turns and air time hills that follow the terrain more (But not like The Beast).
