Oh boy!

I believe that is a train sitting there!! Be cool to see it run!!

Where is that thing that was in the middle of the AZ circle?

Theyre probably just testing the drive wheels between the station and the transfer track area.

Has it been confirmed if the complete first train has been installed?

I feel sorry for the guys trying to get "The Bat" track painted to orange. Not exactly an easy job to begin with. Now having to deal with the weather as well. I am sure you can only paint within a certain temperature range.

Has it been confirmed if the complete first train has been installed?

the full train appeared to be moving back and forth between the storage area and the transfer track.

I'm not seeing this train guys...

It was there but has now gone away

going to go ahead and post these:

Can we all just take a moment and appreciate how beautiful this coaster looks with the sun shining bright on it?

Yes she is very pretty.

Just wait until spring when we see some more green around it.

I am just happy to see less white around her.

Does anyone have any pics from when The Beast was under construction?

^ Yes

Though one of them is not me.

Edit: POST 1/2 K!

Does anyone have any pics from when The Beast was under construction?

I love the way it all came together^

That double helix picture looks amazing!

Those pics are awesome Chaindog. thanks.

In ChainDog's first picture, also note the half-constructed Eiffel Tower. Never-mind. I shouldn't be posting this late. I'm going to bed now.

The Beast was constructed from ~1978-1979 so the Eiffel Tower would have already been a few years old. I think the low resolution of the picture makes it hard to see the full Eiffel Tower.

You don't know what a whopper of a summer is until you've been in Phoenix between June and August......virtual roasting.

I once spent a week in Tucson at the end of December and flew back into Dayton in the middle of a snowstorm. Does that count?

There it is again! A Banshee train is on the transfer track! (look carefully between the vertical loop.)

This image and the webcam can be found by visiting Kings Islands Webcam Page

Could someone get a skyline pick from the road of how Banshee looks compared to the rest of KI? That would be pretty cool.

I may be heading down that way today or tomorrow to go do some go karts possibly, I'll keep you in the loop

^^ Go karts might be a no go today. The whole state of Ohio is under a slight to moderate risk for severe weather, especially going into the afternoon.

Unless he means indoor go karts.

If you search "Banshee Kings Island Skyline" on Google it brings up several pictures

Yeah it's indoor go karts..

However if they were outdoor, oh man I would love to take them out on a wet track haha
