LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 It looks like they're working on installing the roof supports for the transfer shed. 5
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 More track is arriving right now. 4
sikkinixx99 Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 During Banshee construction we got 2 cameras to see it. I'd love to see one on top of FOF building looking all the way back be a great close view right now!! 4

(Sorry, I couldn’t resist. ) lol, I was just thinking someone would say that, I just assumed it was a storage shed because it just closed. 2
Oldschool75 Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 I'll just leave this here for those who missed the fog this morning. 3 5
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 It looks like something went vertical on the station late this afternoon. 3

It was built to house the helicopter for the helicopter tours. Last I knew, it was used as temporary storage in the summer and for winter maintenance on the wood coaster trains in the off-season. 3
collin.klopfstein Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 I think they are starting on the station now maybe? 3

LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 It was Cincinnati Pride Night at Kings Island tonight. Private event. 2
Kodistict Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Just looked at the cam, it looks like they've put more roof beams up on the transfer area. There's also a truck that came from csf, they probably dropped the track off in that grassy area. 2
Kodistict Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Sorry for the double post, but we got some closeups from WildGravity Travels. http://www.wildgravitytravels.com/orion-kings-island-2020-update-21/ 2
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 So the first track support has been installed! Are they currently loading a piece of track back onto a trailer to be hauled elsewhere?! Maybe to another location in the park? 2
coastergirl24 Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 How do they get the trains from the transfer station onto the track? 1
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 8 minutes ago, coastergirl24 said: How do they get the trains from the transfer station onto the track? There’s a section of track that slides (the whole thing) from the main circuit over to the transfer table. They transfer the trains one at a time. It appears they are definitely moving a section of track to either another location in the park, or to elsewhere. 1

coastergirl24 Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Thanks always wonder how they did it. 1
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 They’re moving that section of track over to the other side of the station. I don’t believe there’s enough supports installed to actually install that section of track yet.. Edit: It’s super hard to tell, but I think they’re lifting another support in the station area! 3
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Could it be?! Are they installing the first piece of track? Edit: They are! The first section of station track is being installed!!! 5
