Maverick44 Posted January 26, 2018 Author Posted January 26, 2018 yeah I would pay that if I could make it more often. I go to CP about 3-4 times a season and Ki once or twice. This year may be different due to it being first time Platinum pass holder. 2 Quote

There are plenty of coasters with black seats. Unless a seat is empty, the trains aren't sitting in direct sunlight while in operation for very long. That was a play on words. Saying that those seats look "cool" would be inaccurate 2 1 Quote

harveyhaddixfan Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 I read that you could only use a locker once per visit so you wouldn’t be able to move your stuff around from say Banshee lockers to Mystic Timbers lockers. And if you used it in Soak City first, you’re even more out of luck. Not sure how a plan like that would be beneficial to most at KI. 2 1 Quote

If you look at the loop on the left side of the picture, you can see the low-profile "cars" connecting the two passenger sections. I see it now. I hadn't watched the video, so I thought those might have been the motors. Whoops! 2 Quote

I'm not sure if this includes ride lockers or not. The typical all day lockers are toward the front of the park. It'd be great if it were for ride lockers. I'd rather leave my stuff near a ride than the front of the park because I'll be closer to the rides, not the front of the park. 3 Quote

I'd rather leave my stuff near a ride than the front of the park because I'll be closer to the rides, not the front of the park. I didn’t even think about the ones in the front. To me, the only useful locker plan would be one where you can use any locker, anytime, with as many switches in and out between locations that you need. 3 Quote
Creed Bratton Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 I agree @harveyhaddixfan. I love the system at Dollywood...it makes it much easier, moving your stuff as you rotate around the park as often as you need or not at all. 3 Quote
SonofBaconator Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Sorta off topic but I decided to show the timeline from 2000 until now to show nearly the last two decades of the park. Action Zone Rivertown 18 1 Quote
Maverick44 Posted January 30, 2018 Author Posted January 30, 2018 We need to add to that in the coaster dept within that next couple seasons 2 Quote

FireHawk44 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 This may have already been discussed(didn't read every thing), but will there be any updates in shows? Specifically will there be a new cirque show? I personally would love if they update a lot of the other shows instead of simply showing the same shows every five or so years. Another thing I would like to see KI do is work a little more on their decor, or make more use of what is there. Maybe add animatronics to the train. 1 Quote
