hamoperator Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Looking at the second picture on the new pictures uploads page, it shows a building being demolished. Was this the Red Beards Building? Trying to look at the Ariel photos from the tower, it looks like the only possibility. And if it was, where will they move or will they have at all next year during HH Red Beards Revenge? The peanut wants to know! Quote
XGatorHead 8904 Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 That would be the smokehouse/grill building that was attached to Columbia Palace/Wings Diner, just to the right of the building where Redbeard's was. Quote
faeriewench Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 yes that is Red Beards building. It'll prolly have a new home next year. *shrug* Quote
XGatorHead 8904 Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 The building that hamoperator is referring to in this picture is not Redbeard's. Redbeard's did not come that close to that corner of Wings. From left to right there's Redbeard's, then an employee gate, then the smokehouse/grill building, then Wings Diner. I'm not saying Redbeard's isn't gone, I don't know if it is or not. But the building in the picture is the smokehouse/grill building. EDIT: Just saw the webcam, it looks like Redbeard's is gone too.

BoddaH1994 Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Word from under the illustrious Black Hat is that the Red Beard's building is in fact gone now... Quote
Beast1979 Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 And if you want to proofread the black hat just watch the webcam..... Quote
CoastersRZ Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 And according to the Diamondback blog, the former location of that building will be the main queue area for Diamondback. Quote
hamoperator Posted November 6, 2008 Author Posted November 6, 2008 And according to the Diamondback blog, the former location of that building will be the main queue area for Diamondback. looking at the construction of Diamond Back, I would have thought the main area or loading area would be on the opposite side (where corn stalkers were in 2007; A large structure is being constructed which looks like walk up and turn style area? I'm most likely wrong, but thats what it looks like. Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Yep, you'll enter where the Red Beard's building once stood and exit through the old "Photos in Minutes" building, which will be converted into a gift shop. Quote
Jasper Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I assume this queue area is going to be rather large. to prevent any long lines from extending out into the midway (Cough-Vortex-Cough). Quote
CedarPointer Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I assume this queue area is going to be rather large. to prevent any long lines from extending out into the midway (Cough-Vortex-Cough). Well, Vortex's entrance is hard enough to find anyway... Quote
CoastersRZ Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Well, according to the theoretical capacity numbers for Diamondback, it is projected to be the highest capacity coaster in the park... Quote
The Interpreter Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 ...which is a very good thing, as it will almost certainly draw the most riders at Kings Island for many years to come.... Quote
Kawana Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I assume this queue area is going to be rather large. to prevent any long lines from extending out into the midway (Cough-Vortex-Cough). Well, Vortex's entrance is hard enough to find anyway... Not if you've ridden it once. I never forget where to find Vortex. Quote

I believe the large metal structure you're referring to is the maintenance/storage track area where the trains will sleep at night and during slow days (yeah right, slow days) and where they will receive maintenance work.

I never forget where to find Vortex. you know i would have agreed with your theory two years ago "if you have ridden it once you won't forget where the entrance is", but i have come to find out i always forget where the entrance to cedar creek mine ride is.
