It looks like they're working on installing the roof supports for the transfer shed.

More track is arriving right now.

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!!

This shed is open again, does anyone know what it is?

Since you were nice enough to give us the answer in the first part of your sentence, my “final answer” is....shed.

(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.

I'll just leave this here for those who missed the fog this morning. 

 

 

 

It looks like something went vertical on the station late this afternoon.

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.

I think they are starting on the station now maybe?

well the park is busy for it not being open.  Must have been rented out of a corporation.  Any clue for who?

I got word it was rented out to the Cincinnati Pride people or something of that nature.........

Is this what you're talking about?

Yes, and also a friend of mine works there and told me that so......

It was Cincinnati Pride Night at Kings Island tonight.  Private event.

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.

Sorry for the double post, but we got some closeups from WildGravity Travels. http://www.wildgravitytravels.com/orion-kings-island-2020-update-21/

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?

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.

they are tranferring now if u want to watch

Thanks always wonder how they did it.

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!

Could it be?!  Are they installing the first piece of track?

Edit:  They are!  The first section of station track is being installed!!!
