violakat03 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I saw the same people there, but I assumed they were just watching to see how things moved and reacted to the full trains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFTTDDB Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 No, it's not the wrong conclusion ya'll. I seen them with my own eyes. There were at least 10 of them, and one of them was the guy that spoke at the podium while we were on the ride for the first train to take off. My second ride was around 1 or 2pm, and that's when I saw them out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teenageninja Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 That shed is the storage area for Launch Pad aka Eurobungy. There isn't really anything exciting in there I promise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaterboy22101 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I don't know if anyone noticed about all the big heads and maintenence workers standing around the footers that is holding Diamondback's first helix, and near the brake block. Seemed like they were concerned about the bolts that were attached near the footer that is directly in the middle of the helix, and the footer for the end of the block brake. I'm just more concerned about people who only have 3 posts trying to drum up some fear info to get attention. Oh don't start this! Cause I actaly think you only posted that to get attention! We the people of KICentral are here to discuss every thing related to Kings Island, hell we will talk about anything here! So don't go starting stuff on here about people trying to get attention, we are all here for the same reason, Kings Island. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So don't go starting stuff on here about people trying to get attention, we are all here for the same reason, Kings Island. It just seems to me that too many people here at KICentral judge a book by it's cover too much. If you think I'm trying to get attention, well then I'm not. I'm very well known in the other forum (TPOL) that I've been a part of since 05, and I have no intention to start anything. I've been going to Kings Island since the day I was born, and I think I know just about as much of KI as most of everyone else on the site does as well. Now, about the workers out there by the helix. Most of them were standing around, but a few were really looking hard at either the footer, or bolts. I'm not saying that something is wrong with the ride, but I thought it would be something to talk about since now I have at least someone that seen them as well as I did.

Beast79 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Being a maintenance tech for two years at Kings Island they were mostlikely just soaking in all the excitment. I'm sure DB looks really cool around that area of the ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFTTDDB Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Something else I noticed yesterday while appeasing Miss Rae on a ride on White Water Canyon. They have cut down trees and cleared the vegetation between the train and the WWC platform with the exception of a few evergreen trees with the branches trimmed way up the tree. Also on the other side of the track they cut down all/most of the tress between the train and the picnic grove. I was amazed that on WWC loading platform you can see almost the whole picnic grove with nothing in between to buffer, WWC will feel odd in the open like that and in a way lose some of its wooded river ride feel. you'll see what i mean the next time you ride, I just wished i had took a picture of it. After My cousin, girlfriend and I got off of WWC, we also noticed all the trimmings in between WWC platform and the train. We also noticed new fence posts for both the entrance and exit for WWC and also quite a few nails that were laying all over the ground and concrete. Hopefully we got all of them, and also let security know about what we saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iChase Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 There seemed to be some work done behind the WWC area. It looked rather barren between the railroad and Canyon. I noticed fewer trees and new transformers and power boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
