RE: 2012 Coaster

I didn't take any new pictures of the hole, it's about the same. I think there is more machinery in it now and they are still boring away for more footers.
 
RE: 2012 Coaster

I stopped by today. At the hole there are a dozen or more footers being worked on. Most just have rebar in them. Over at the station it is entirely gutted now and clearing has started around where the break run will be. Looks like the small water fall has had better days...
 
RE: 2012 Coaster

the top of the rebar reaches about 14 inches above the ground.....the foundation will tie into that 14 inches...:p
 
RE: 2012 Coaster

Here is the RPA map I promised, its based on BGW's Plat and the schematic posted earlier. The Green is the RPA obviously. Yes I know it kinda slapped together, because it was just slapped together in less that a minute.

Update for Thursday 8-4

Well say goodbye to the waterfall element, there were ripping it up all day with a pneumatic hammer so I don't think there just changing it, and they had some new signage and branding up on the green monster wall...

RE: 2012 Coaster

I really hope they replace that waterfall when they finish the construction- it's the little touches like that which made the park so nice.
 
RE: 2012 Coaster

They now have some signs on the wall going down the path from Germany to Italy hinting at what is coming. Some pics of the signs and the hole, you can see the rebar sticking out of a couple of footers.

Hmm, when I posted the last entry I saw was at 4:32. Oh well couple more views.

After looking at the pictures (3rd and 4th pic to be exact) I am starting to think the name probably will be Verbolten. Notice the white shield with the Thunderbolt in it.
 
RE: 2012 Coaster

Has anyone else noticed at night during illuminights there is a green spot light shining on the old BBW final hill to the Rhine? Why is this there? Also they added some cool new signs before you cross the here's to the Heros bridge, one of them have a lightining bolt in the symbol (Like meaning the name of the ride is Verbolten)

Agreed. Let's see how theming goes in that spot if any
 
RE: 2012 Coaster

Glad to see finally some teaser signs are out now. I'd guess the announcement could be in the next month?
 
RE: 2012 Coaster

This is the kind of update I've been waiting for, I'm glad that they're setting it up for an announcement.

Using the charts on the first page of this thread, it looks like the waterfall will removed because the queue might be going on top of it as well as some other path.

Actually that whole que building is already there. Where the waterfall currently is isn't even in that picture.

Fixed!Also James, I think you mean queue not Quebec. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QueAs for the waterfall, who really knows what they are going to do. They may make a bigger one where it was.
