Taken from barton-supply.com: I WANT to say it's some type of plastic vapor barrier.. That looks about right. Also, I'm probably just imagining things, but they look to be moving one of the turn into station track pieces. EDIT: I think that track piece is being put into place!!!! EDIT: That piece is in place!!!! 2
Klabergian Empire Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 It appears they have assembled part of the turn around! 3

Maverick44 Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 Turn into station is being placed on supports! 4
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 Sorry for the multiple posts in a row, but....TURNAROUND TRACK is going up! 5
JonahWilliamson Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 Helps with Moisture and freezing with the winter months I believe. Ive seen up here in good ole Buffalo (Tons of snow) New York we use stuff like this under our roads but the stuff ive seen is blue I think it is thinner material with a similar concept 2
Maverick44 Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 Another piece of track being installed and it looks to be a straight piece in to station. 2

Maverick44 Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 I can't even see what you circled lol I am looking now and it seems straight but either was more track going up!! 2

Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 They seem to be lifting another piece or at least getting ready to. 3
Maverick44 Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 yeah I think @Kodistict is correct another turn piece for break run. 3
Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 I think what's going to happen is they'll put up the brake run and then after that is done in about a week or so if you ask me, then they'll start on the lift hill. They'll have to get the large cranes in before they start on the lift hill. Banshee I think started with the transfer track area and then brake run and then lift hill. 6
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 Did we just see one of our aerial photos guys fly over on the webcam? lol. That plane seemed very low.. 3 2

And with Fury, when they got to the lift hill, they started with the bottom of the lift hill and the bottom of the first drop, and worked their way up to the middle at the very top. 2

Yup that's how they keep it all together. They go up both sides and meet at the top to "lock" it in place. 3
collin.klopfstein Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 they are putting up the track for the turnaround now! 3
Kodistict Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 They just put up more turn around track! 5

CedarIslander Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 Well I don't know about anyone else, but I would love to see more aerial shot of this beast! (Pun intended) 5
collin.klopfstein Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 looks like they are done for the day 1

(Pun intended) This Beast, or the new (blue) beast? Ps, notice WindSeeker is up in this picture? And this is on subject, since you can see blue track in the background. :-P On edit: Added watermark, so a certain user/channel/group doesnt steal any more pictures. :-) Edited September 14, 2019 by sixohdieselrage Internet pirates are still on the loose. 7

DeltaFlyer Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 I got a good look at the track and station work that has been done so far from Beast’s lift tonight. That shade of blue 5
Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 Are the workers off today? Doesn't look like much is going on right now. 2
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 They were working a little earlier. Then 4 or 5 trucks cleared out about 30 minutes ago. They may already be done for the day. 1

LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 There are a few workers back at it. Not the full staff, but at least 3 or 4 over by the transfer shed/newly installed track. 3
