Banshee Construction Progress

The Trailer Tower may have been the Pinnacle of Rampant Speculation and off season craziness on this site. Also that was quite shocking it got pulled the way it did, who would have thunk. Yeah Terpy its been some good times together on these here interboards.

What exactly was Trailer Tower? (pics) What was it for, and why was it pulled away? What year was it? etc.

2 or 3 trailers of track going down 2-75 near Loveland! Headed To KI!!

Why is the track pinkish/purple in the POVs....

Its definitely maroon...imo

I better be able to see first-hand coaster track on the bed of a truck at least once in my life.

And it kinda sucks we won't be getting a purple/ pink coaster. :wacko:

Looks like we basically have another red one... from the PICTURES... it seems like we'll have a Superman-ee feel.. to the.. look. :P

    We did not mention all the statistics during the announcement because statistics are not what make a roller coaster great; it's the ride experience it delivers that makes it great.

  • It's good to see me, isn't it? No need to respond! That was rhetorical. Under 30 days until Banshee makes its public debut! We can't wait for you to come out and experience this ride.

    We have guests that are more excited about our live shows than our roller coasters, that visit the park specifically for the shows. For these guests, the Cirque Imagine announcement was as exciting as

Yesterday there was a digger digging a straight line. They had two cranes there concrete platforms in the ground. They had blue metal poles on the ground. I took photos of this.

The Trailer Tower was built on the Diamondback construction site during the off season and many KIC members took up residence during the off season. Unfortunately once the Tower became sponsored by a certain yellow Non Coke product carbonated beverage the Tower was torn down. I am not sure if there are any pictures of the Tower sitting on the construction site or not, but I can assure you it did exist and was a pinnacle in rampant speculation on KIC.

Pictures were posted to this site as recently as this year. Once M.D.* appeared as a sponsor, the attraction was immediately removed.

* cannot say that here, lest it disappear.

Yes I think the Tower made cameo during the rampant speculation thread this year.

Try the search feature in the Starting to Decode 2014 (Trailer Tower). It will give you a brief idea of the off season craziness that had previously taken place during a mustang of a ride.

Just saw the video of the trucks bringing in the track pieces!!! :D sweet!!! :) I can't wait to see this thing start to be erected! :)

So this is a little off topic but I dont want to start a new post for this...

Whats going on with Flight Decks logos being taken off??

Has this been talked about already??

Thanks

^Take a look back and at other threads like "renaming flight deck" blah blah

Logos haven't been there for some time, it's not getting renamed that we know of and shouldn't..

But take a look, lots of info in previous posts and other threads

Either more supports have shown up, or they have moved some of the station supports over near the station footers.

Let those supports be sun-washed for a summer or two... they'll be pink.

So blue supports will morph to pink by next season?

Looks great. Seeing the real picture of the track color is awesome.

Yeah I agree the actual track color looks darker and better than I the rendering IMO.

Don talking about the first pieces of track arriving. I didn't see this video on here. Sorry if it already is.

I was there yesturday and there was little construction! All they had was where the supports were going with the footers! Also I saw a lot of cement trucks by the McDonalds right by ki! A lot of footer ready for cement I think

I really like that new "Kings Island" wordmark style/font on the Plinko board. It reminds me of classic KI and PKI logos.

I'm wondering it's a new park logo or is just stylized for Banshee promotional material.

The blue supports look purple to some, the pink supports seem red:

we're looking at photographs, through monitors, each with our own color profiles. I'm on a Wacom Cintiq, with yet another color profile.

When they start putting the two different colored supports together, the nearness of the two colors next to each other will create the visual contrast needed to make it look more like the CGI representation.

What looks red on a truck will take on a more fuschia hue when placed against the sky.

I wonder if Cedar Fair will want to put more coasters in Kings Island than Cedar Point to beat magic mountain?? because Cedar Point is kinda landlocked
