Kight31Woodmen Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 So is this track for the new ride? I wonder when they'll start bringing it out of the crates if this is the hypercoaster track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DropZone99 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 It could be for Track, Supports, trains, bolts, wheels, barings, the chain, anything! ou'll find out soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kight31Woodmen Posted July 16, 2008 Author Share Posted July 16, 2008 True, only time can tell. July is a real busy month for business. What could be taking so long for the official press release? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTheater Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 CP didn't announce Maverick to September, even though they had track segments up. Heck Dragster was announced in January. I am saying no announcement anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SOB_TOM Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I would surmise that the park will wait until around the time Season Passes go on sale to boost pre-sale season pass sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RailRider Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Im sure those are for the new ride, but man they are far out from the work site. I would imgaine supplies, possibly trains on site, seems early but possible. Track will be hauled in on Flatbed, so its not on site yet. I bet they have a huge savings on this ride because shipping costs and fuel costs since it is manufactured so close to the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iChase Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 ^ I wouldn't doubt it. Lucky deal. Perhaps it would be economically sensible to keep building B&M's. One can only hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BavarianBeatle Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 My kids say that the crates are full of trim brakes.... Bah, humbug to them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dvo Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 ^haha good one. Based on the Raging Bull experience, I wouldn't be surprised... However that's not saying B&M can't make good hypers. Apollo's Chariot is one of my favorite hypers. If I were to guess what's in those crates though... I'd say its 5 new mini-haunts for HH!

BavarianBeatle Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 My best guess is its stuff for the construction of the station, especially things that cant be left out in the elements. Things like control panels, PA system stuff, and things of that nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hauntguy Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Could also be a haunt for HH... I know a haunt supplier that provides FULL TURN KEY haunts in crates like that! Just saying... -Hauntguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever6750 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Are those green houses Kings Island's? Do they use them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shman Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Yes the greenhouses are owned by the park, and the landscaping department uses them to grow their own flowers for the park. I'm not sure I would say that those crates are necessarliy for Kings Island....I think they are on the "other side" of the property fence and more in the area that is Great Wolf now.

CoastersRZ Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I believe that the road on the left in the picture in question is where KI/Great Wolf`s property meet each other. Just because there is a fence between the crates and the greenhouses, does not necessarily mean that that area of land is not KI`s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever6750 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Where there sitting used to be part of the camp ground. The smaller (older?) bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Even if said land DOES belong to Great Wolf Lodge, which it may or may not, it is conceivable the park and Great Wolf Lodge have some sort of arrangement to allow the crates to be in residence momentarily.

Outdoor Man Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 it could be an old "new" ride packaged with love from Geauga Lake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
