Banshee Construction Progress

Featured Replies

I think in past years (May be wrong) They stored Congo Falls Boats in the Entrance Building. Not sure though.

In December 2011 they were stored in the Picnic Grove:

    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

I just think I saw From an Trip Report that they were stored in the Entrance area. Still not sure. Trying to find it.

EDIT: Found it!

I kinda hope not, for that place.

I would rather not continuously see flashing that close to the midway. I think somewhere between the zero G roll exit and the bottom after the 2nd loop would be better.

If this were RCT2

Vortex camera is right next to the midway

But it's also below and hidden from the midway, which means that people on the midway generally don't notice it during the day. Even at night, when the flash lights up the track, it doesn't get annoying because you're only seeing what gets lit up, not the light itself.

Banshee doesn't have the benefit of being below the midway like that.

Does anyone have a close up picture of the current state of Banshees station? Curious to see what it look like.

I wouldn't mind it after the Batwing :)

I think in the middle of the Batwing would be a good spot. Fastest point of the ride I believe. Of course if they are going to have fog effects anywhere on the ride, and the Batwing is one spot that would have them, it could affect where they put the camera.

I want to see a camera in the midst of an inversion. Though mounting that may present a challenge.

Though, tackiness would be more of a problem lol.
Just some random arms protruding out from the 180* mark of an inversion? lol

I also see a helicopter from Planey Snoopy in the top right hand corner in the first picture

I feel like I saw a picture from last offseason that they were storing a boatload of trashcans under International Restaurant...

You may have. Here's a shot of them from two offseasons ago (taken the same day as the one of the Congo Falls boat above):

Also in the Rivertown train station:

There's much more from that day here.

Looks like USA Today finally got things right. It now says 4,124 feet. It would be nice for them to verify things before publishing the articles though.

Did they remove the circle in Action Zone? I can't tell if it's just covered up by dirt or if they removed it? Sorry if this has been discussed before.

It appears it was dug up. I know some are happy, I kinda liked it. It fit the theme of Action Zone. I think it would distract from a possible change of themes. It just makes me that much more excited about the 2014 season.

They plan on loading unloading in the same area on Banshee? Probably just me but the picture inside the station just doesn't look that big at least to me.

Also anyone heard anything about the arrival of the trains?

Once I saw a coaster somewhere in china that had a little guy that took the ride picture, ran back to the photo booth, and had it developed before the people got off the ride, and then ran all the way back to take the next picture. He must have been really tired by the end of the day!

If I remember correctly Hydra the Revenge at Dorney Park has a camera for the barrel roll out of the station.

Yes, someone has heard something about the arrival of the trains.

The station is much larger than you think- It's all about perspective. Yes its not the size of Diamondbacks station.. but I would say it was comparable to Invertigo's maybe bigger.

That would be a JoJo Roll.
