jcovelli Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 They've made a ton of progress on the station in the last couple days also. I can't wait to find out the color scheme of the other two trains. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see it coming down and being replaced with a large RMC Raptor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Night Rider Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 They most likely had this planned to have 1 piece left so they can have media come out to cover the track being completed. It should make for good coverage and photos tomorrow bc the sun is supposed to be out finally! 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the vid for Fury's last piece and you can see the all the media folks in the upper left hand corner on the ground. ***Fun Fact, Fury 325's last piece was installed on Jan 30 2015.

STLcoasters33 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I wonder how soon we’ll see the trains installed? I’m also hopeful they’re not all the same paint job.

silver2005 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 As someone with their favorite B&M being Nitro, I am digging all those hills that are banked and curved at the top. One of the big reasons I like Nitro so much is due to it having a few hills like that. They are outstanding on the outer seats with the airtime and laterals combo. I'm giddy with Orion now with it going to be taking those elements a wee bit faster than Nitro. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
