israel09 Posted August 1, 2009 Posted August 1, 2009 ive seen post saying that there are now lights placed near the track on The Beast. Is this true, i haven't had a chance to ride it at night in a few years. but i know that it was only moonlight back there when i did. that was the best part of The Beast. day and night gave two completely different rides. It would suck with lights ,lol Quote
CoasterFreak45 Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 I've only notiuced lights near lift hills. The times I've rode it, It's been dark back there. Quote
DiamondbackLover Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 I haven't noticed. Hopefully KI notices a night ride is amazing the way it is. Quote
pcc Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 When I took my first ever night ride 2 weeks ago, there were two spotlights on 2 different areas of track back in the woods. Quote
pcc Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 They put lights on the helix in the tunnel. The tunnels were dark during my visit. I can't recall the exact section that was lit up, but I do recall 2 lights, and saying to my friend "Huh, I thought this ride was completely in the dark?" Regardless, it was the best ride ever. And I'll say it again, going up the first lift, looking back on the park at night is a beautiful sight to behold. If only I could have stopped time and snapped a picture. Quote
HTCO Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 I know those lights are new. Some night rides I take there on and some there off. Quote
pcc Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 I know those lights are new. Some night rides I take there on and some there off. It was the first midnight ride of the season. I dunno if that made any difference or not. Quote
hamoperator Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 We rode last night; there are lights going up the first hill, going around the last curve before the hill to the helix, and at the top of the hill to the helix. Quote
dragsterfan420 Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 Their's is actually a good amount of lights around the track, not just in the aforementioned places. I know for a fact their is a light to the right of the track coming out of the long MCBR, before the tunnel. I also know for a fact their is one to the left of the track after that tunnel. I think their is one next to the "airtime" hill after the first drop as well. One time they had all those lights on during one of my night rides and I was pretty mad because they are very bright.

mtl2013 Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 they put some lights in the helix, but they aren't always on. The night ride is way better without lights. Quote
israel09 Posted August 2, 2009 Author Posted August 2, 2009 Sigh, thats sad, lol I wish they would just turn them on if they need too, like an emergency or something. that's one of the best parts of The Beast, the night ride. Quote
