boy that is going to be one nice station... I like the windows in the bottom of it!!! very nice. I'm super excited to see this progressing I can't wait til the landscaping starts. Thank you David for the update!

What was it they were digging Myklhicks?

Can't wait to ride this bad girl!

I'm probably getting to go on April 17, and this year, for the first time, my family has gotten Platinum passes!

I'm curious if we will get a look at the trains when they arrive?

I would like to see how they put the trains on the track

Inverted, of course.

I can tell you exactly how they'll put them on the track.

Carefully.

They will be slid onto the track somewhere around the transfer track. I believe Diamondback's trains slide out of the back of the storage shed

Good morning Banshee lovers.

Not a complaint just curious if we will get the new camera to pan left a bit so we can see the outer loop being put up?

Why does it look like they poured extra concrete around that support?

If you click here it'll take you to one of davidw's captures of angle 2 of the construction workers smoothing out the concrete.

It certainly looks like they did frost-proof those footers for some reason. Could it be that they went ahead and grouted the top of those footers? Also, I'm thinking those are likely the lowest footers on the course.

Edit: Well that didn't take long - the next support is up.

Looks like another piece of track is about to be installed. At least it seems to be staged right near the support.

Really wish we could go see this beauty when the track work is done.

You can see it when track work is done. In April when the park opens.

The above image was posted to KI`s Twitter. Last pieces of track leaving the manufacturing plant in Batavia.

Dumb question here. Do they weld and bolt each track piece together or just bolt them?

Track pieces are bolted together. They then come back and grind smooth where the actual tracks pieces joing together, in case there were slight tolerance differences.

Thanks CoastersRZ

I know its a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone else is capturing all of the webcam images? My script stopped working overnight, and I missed about 6 hours of captures including the support and track that was installed this morning.

If i had to guess, theyre probably doing some grouting.

This picture makes me want to break out the old RCT1 and see how far I can fling cars from my unfinished coasters (in unmanned test mode, of course)...

Someone turned the heat off here at work. I would like them to man your car.

Looks like they're digging under the start of the loop interacting with the lift hill.

It's much more fun with people.

Speaking of loop where the loop that goes around the lift hill comes out and starts to go up to the zero g roll did they build a concrete block by the bottom of those supports?

Haven't seen a picture yet but it looks like that last pieces of track have arrived at the staging area!!

I hope they pass my guess of 3/3 today. 3 supports and 3 track pieces.

So far its 2/2.

I am starting to see white fluffy rain. A.K.A., snow.

noticeable changes on the webcam already today I wish I could spend all day watching the cam but I work in a warehouse so I can't
